ElevenLabs API Skill (Advanced)

Purpose

Best fit

• - You need text-to-speech or speech-to-speech conversion.
• You want realtime speech-to-text with low latency.
• You prefer direct HTTP calls with predictable outputs.

Not a fit

• - You require a full SDK integration and helpers.
• You need full conversational agents beyond audio I/O.

Quick orientation

• - Read references/elevenlabs-authentication.md for API keys and single-use tokens.
• Read references/elevenlabs-text-to-speech.md for TTS endpoints and payloads.
• Read references/elevenlabs-speech-to-speech.md for voice conversion.
• Read references/elevenlabs-speech-to-text-realtime.md for realtime STT WebSocket.
• Read references/elevenlabs-text-to-dialogue.md for multi-voice dialogue output.
• Read references/elevenlabs-voices-models.md for voice IDs and model discovery.
• Read references/elevenlabs-safety-and-privacy.md for zero-retention and safety rules.

Required inputs

• - API key (xi-api-key) or a single-use token when needed.
• Voice IDs and model IDs for your target use case.
• Output format choice (audio codec/sample rate/bitrate).

Expected output

• - A clear workflow plan, endpoint checklist, and operational guardrails.

Operational notes

• - Keep a strict allowlist for downstream destinations of audio output.
• Cache voice IDs and model IDs server-side.
• Keep payloads small and retry with backoff on throttling.

Security notes

• - Never log API keys or tokens.
• Use single-use tokens for client-side access.
