# ElevenLabs 3  — API Reference

Model ID: `model_elevenlabs-tts-v3`

---

## Authentication

- **API_KEY** and **API_SECRET** are found in your [Scenario Project Settings](https://app.scenario.com/team&tab=project_api_keys) under API Keys.
- Set them as environment variables `SCENARIO_SDK_API_KEY` and `SCENARIO_SDK_API_SECRET` — both SDKs pick them up by default.
- For raw HTTP (cURL), use Basic Auth: `Authorization: Basic base64("<API_KEY>:<API_SECRET>")`.

### Install the SDK

- JavaScript / TypeScript: `npm install @scenario-labs/sdk`
- Python: `pip install scenario-sdk`

---

## Generate

**Endpoint:** `POST https://api.cloud.scenario.com/v1/generate/custom/model_elevenlabs-tts-v3`

### Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `text` | string | yes | - | The words that will be spoken aloud in the generated audio. |
| `voiceId` | model | - | `` | A custom voice you cloned or trained to speak the text. |
| `publicVoice` | string | - | `Adam` | A ready-made ElevenLabs voice, used only when no custom Voice is set. |
| `stability` | number | - | `0.5` | Higher values make the voice steadier and more consistent; lower values make it more varied and expressive. |
| `similarityBoost` | number | - | `0.75` | How closely the output matches the original voice; higher values track it more tightly but can amplify artifacts. |
| `styleExaggeration` | number | - | `0` | Amplifies the speaker's style and emotion; higher values are more expressive but can reduce stability. |
| `speed` | number | - | `1` | How fast the speech is delivered; below 1.0 slows it down, above 1.0 speeds it up. Extreme values may affect quality. |
| `outputFormat` | string | - | `mp3_44100_128` | File type, sample rate, and bitrate of the generated audio. |
| `seed` | number | - | - | Fixes randomness so identical inputs produce the same audio every time. |

### Example Requests

**cURL**

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.cloud.scenario.com/v1/generate/custom/model_elevenlabs-tts-v3" \
  -H "Authorization: Basic $(echo -n '<API_KEY>:<API_SECRET>' | base64)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data-binary @- <<'EOF'
{
  "text": "A fantasy landscape",
  "publicVoice": "Adam",
  "stability": 0.5,
  "similarityBoost": 0.75,
  "styleExaggeration": 0,
  "speed": 1,
  "outputFormat": "mp3_44100_128"
}
EOF
```

**Python**

```python
import os
from scenario_sdk import Scenario

client = Scenario(
    api_key=os.environ.get("SCENARIO_SDK_API_KEY"),
    api_secret=os.environ.get("SCENARIO_SDK_API_SECRET"),
)

body = {
    "text": "A fantasy landscape",
    "publicVoice": "Adam",
    "stability": 0.5,
    "similarityBoost": 0.75,
    "styleExaggeration": 0,
    "speed": 1,
    "outputFormat": "mp3_44100_128"
}

response = client.generate.run_model(
    model_id="model_elevenlabs-tts-v3",
    body=body,
)
print(response)
```

**JavaScript**

```javascript
import Scenario from "@scenario-labs/sdk";

const client = new Scenario({
  apiKey: process.env["SCENARIO_SDK_API_KEY"],
  apiSecret: process.env["SCENARIO_SDK_API_SECRET"],
});

const body = {
  "text": "A fantasy landscape",
  "publicVoice": "Adam",
  "stability": 0.5,
  "similarityBoost": 0.75,
  "styleExaggeration": 0,
  "speed": 1,
  "outputFormat": "mp3_44100_128"
};

const response = await client.generate.runModel("model_elevenlabs-tts-v3", { body });
console.info(response);
```

## Retrieve Results

After submitting a generation request, you receive a `jobId`. Poll the job until `job.status` is `"success"`. The generated asset IDs are in `job.metadata.assetIds`.

**Endpoint:** `GET https://api.cloud.scenario.com/v1/jobs/{jobId}`

### Example Requests

**cURL**

```bash
curl -X GET "https://api.cloud.scenario.com/v1/jobs/<JOB_ID>" \
  -H "Authorization: Basic $(echo -n '<API_KEY>:<API_SECRET>' | base64)"
```

**Python**

```python
job = client.jobs.retrieve(job_id="<JOB_ID>")
print(job.status)
print(job.metadata.asset_ids)
```

**JavaScript**

```javascript
// Option 1 — wait on the response from runModel using the SDK helper
const completed = await response.job.wait();
console.info(completed.status);
console.info(completed.metadata?.assetIds);

// Option 2 — retrieve a job by its ID
const job = await client.jobs.retrieve("<JOB_ID>");
console.info(job.status);
console.info(job.metadata?.assetIds);
```

**Example response:**

```json
{
  "job": {
    "jobId": "job_abc123",
    "status": "success",
    "metadata": {
      "assetIds": [
        "asset_abc123"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

> **Important:** Generated asset URLs are **temporary** and expire after a short period. Download and store any images you wish to keep before the URL expires. More info: [Content Delivery Network (CDN)](https://docs.scenario.com/get-started/documentation/content-delivery-network-cdn).
