If your App Service MI has `Cognitive Services Speech User` role → authorized -4. The request proceeds to your dedicated Speech resource instance - ---- - -## Required Setup for Managed Identity - -### Prerequisites - -1. **Azure Speech Service resource** created in your subscription -2. **System-assigned or user-assigned managed identity** on your App Service -3. **RBAC role assignments** on the Speech resource - -### Step 1: Enable Custom Subdomain on Speech Resource - -**Why needed**: By default, Speech resources use the regional endpoint and do NOT have custom subdomains. Managed identity requires the resource-specific endpoint. - -**How to enable**: - -```bash -az cognitiveservices account update \ - --name \ - --resource-group \ - --custom-domain -``` - -**Example**: - -```bash -az cognitiveservices account update \ - --name simplechat6-dev-speech \ - --resource-group sc-simplechat6-dev-rg \ - --custom-domain simplechat6-dev-speech -``` - -**Important notes**: -- Custom subdomain name must be **globally unique** across Azure -- Usually use the same name as your resource: `` -- **One-way operation**: Cannot be disabled once enabled -- After enabling, the resource's endpoint property changes from regional to resource-specific - -**Verify custom subdomain is enabled**: - -```bash -az cognitiveservices account show \ - --name \ - --resource-group \ - --query "{customSubDomainName:properties.customSubDomainName, endpoint:properties.endpoint}" -``` - -Expected output: -```json -{ - "customSubDomainName": "simplechat6-dev-speech", - "endpoint": "https://simplechat6-dev-speech.cognitiveservices.azure.com/" -} -``` - -### Step 2: Assign RBAC Roles to Managed Identity - -Grant your App Service managed identity the necessary roles on the Speech resource: - -```bash -# Get the Speech resource ID -SPEECH_RESOURCE_ID=$(az cognitiveservices account show \ - --name \ - --resource-group \ - --query id -o tsv) - -# Get the App Service managed identity principal ID -MI_PRINCIPAL_ID=$(az webapp identity show \ - --name \ - --resource-group \ - --query principalId -o tsv) - -# Assign Cognitive Services Speech User role (data-plane read access) -az role assignment create \ - --assignee $MI_PRINCIPAL_ID \ - --role "Cognitive Services Speech User" \ - --scope $SPEECH_RESOURCE_ID - -# Assign Cognitive Services Speech Contributor role (if needed for write operations) -az role assignment create \ - --assignee $MI_PRINCIPAL_ID \ - --role "Cognitive Services Speech Contributor" \ - --scope $SPEECH_RESOURCE_ID -``` - -**Verify role assignments**: - -```bash -az role assignment list \ - --assignee $MI_PRINCIPAL_ID \ - --scope $SPEECH_RESOURCE_ID \ - -o table -``` - -### Step 3: Configure Admin Settings - -In the Admin Settings → Search & Extract → Multimedia Support section: - -| Setting | Value | Example | -|---------|-------|---------| -| **Enable Audio File Support** | ✅ Checked | | -| **Speech Service Endpoint** | Resource-specific endpoint (with custom subdomain) | `https://simplechat6-dev-speech.cognitiveservices.azure.com` | -| **Speech Service Location** | Azure region | `eastus2` | -| **Speech Service Locale** | Language locale for transcription | `en-US` | -| **Authentication Type** | Managed Identity | | -| **Speech Service Key** | (Leave empty when using MI) | | - -**Critical**: -- Endpoint must be the resource-specific URL (custom subdomain) -- Do NOT use the regional endpoint for managed identity -- Remove trailing slash from endpoint: ✅ `https://..azure.com` ❌ `https://..azure.com/` - -### Step 4: Test Audio Upload - -1. Upload a short WAV or MP3 file -2. Monitor application logs for transcription progress -3. Expected log output: - ``` - File size: 1677804 bytes - Produced 1 WAV chunks: ['/tmp/tmp_chunk_000.wav'] - [Debug] Transcribing WAV chunk: /tmp/tmp_chunk_000.wav - [Debug] Speech config obtained successfully - [Debug] Received 5 phrases - Creating 3 transcript pages - ``` - ---- - -## Troubleshooting - -### Error: NameResolutionError - Failed to resolve hostname - -**Symptom**: `Failed to resolve 'simplechat6-dev-speech.cognitiveservices.azure.com'` - -**Cause**: Custom subdomain not enabled on Speech resource - -**Solution**: Enable custom subdomain using Step 1 above - -### Error: 400 BadRequest when using MI with regional endpoint - -**Symptom**: `400 Client Error: BadRequest for url: https://eastus2.api.cognitive.microsoft.com/speechtotext/transcriptions:transcribe` - -**Cause**: Managed identity requires resource-specific endpoint, not regional - -**Solution**: Update Admin Settings endpoint to use `https://.cognitiveservices.azure.com` - -### Error: 401 Authentication error with MI - -**Symptom**: `WebSocket upgrade failed: Authentication error (401)` - -**Cause**: Missing RBAC role assignments - -**Solution**: Assign required roles using Step 2 above - -### Key auth works but MI fails - -**Diagnosis checklist**: -- [ ] Custom subdomain enabled on Speech resource? -- [ ] Admin Settings endpoint is resource-specific (not regional)? -- [ ] Managed identity has RBAC roles on Speech resource? -- [ ] Authentication Type set to "Managed Identity" in Admin Settings? - ---- - -## Summary - -| Authentication Method | Endpoint Type | Example | Works? | -|----------------------|---------------|---------|--------| -| **Key** | Regional | `https://eastus2.api.cognitive.microsoft.com` | ✅ Yes | -| **Key** | Resource-specific | `https://simplechat6-dev-speech.cognitiveservices.azure.com` | ✅ Yes | -| **Managed Identity** | Regional | `https://eastus2.api.cognitive.microsoft.com` | ❌ No (400 BadRequest) | -| **Managed Identity** | Resource-specific | `https://simplechat6-dev-speech.cognitiveservices.azure.com` | ✅ Yes (with custom subdomain) | - -**Key takeaway**: Managed identity for Azure Cognitive Services data-plane operations requires: -1. Custom subdomain enabled on the resource -2. Resource-specific endpoint configured in your application -3.
