Voice API Speech Recognition Now In General Availability

What's this blog post about?

We’re happy to announce that Speech Recognition (ASR) is now generally available! Here is the summary of improvements we have made during the Beta stage based on valuable feedback: Call ID Is Now Optional, allowing for more flexibility in IVR or voice bot scenarios where a single leg in the call is typical. The uuid parameter is optional and can be used to specify a different leg if needed. Input Type is now configurable with a new type parameter that allows setting DTMF, speech, or both inputs explicitly. All Server SDKs now support ASR, making it easy to convert existing DTMF IVRs to natural speech voice assistants or create new ones from scratch.
