C# SDK Reference

Installation

You can find the AssemblyAI C# SDK on NuGet. Add the latest version using the .NET CLI:

$
dotnet add package AssemblyAI

Then, create an AssemblyAIClient with your API key:

1
using AssemblyAI;
2
3
var client = new AssemblyAIClient(Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("ASSEMBLYAI_API_KEY")!);

You can now use the client object to interact with the AssemblyAI API.

Add the AssemblyAIClient to the dependency injection container

The AssemblyAI SDK has built-in support for default .NET dependency injection container. Add the AssemblyAIClient to the service collection like this:

1
using AssemblyAI;
2
3
// build your services
4
services.AddAssemblyAIClient();

By default, the AssemblyAIClient loads it configuration from the AssemblyAI section from the .NET configuration.

1
{
2
  "AssemblyAI": {
3
    "ApiKey": "YOUR_ASSEMBLYAI_API_KEY"
4
  }
5
}

You can also configure the AssemblyAIClient other ways using the AddAssemblyAIClient overloads.

1
using AssemblyAI;
2
3
// build your services
4
services.AddAssemblyAIClient(options =>
5
{
6
    options.ApiKey = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("ASSEMBLYAI_API_KEY")!;
7
});
