Manage Voices

Everything after creation: find your voices, fetch their samples, and remove them

A cloned voice belongs to the workspace rather than the member who created it, and access follows the caller’s workspace role and API-key scopes exactly as for any other voice: voices scopes to list it, audio scopes to synthesize with it, and the content-management permission plus a write scope on the key to delete it. This page covers the lifecycle after creation - creating one is the Voice Cloning API page.

List voices

Cloned voices appear in the voices list alongside Speechify’s built-in catalog:

GET
/v1/voices
from speechify import Speechify
client = Speechify(
token="YOUR_TOKEN_HERE",
)
client.voices.list(
locale="en",
model="simba-3.2",
project_id="proj_01arz3ndektsv4rrffq69g5fav",
)
Response
{
"next_cursor": "string",
"has_more": true,
"voices": [
{
"display_name": "string",
"gender": "male",
"locale": "string",
"id": "string",
"models": [
{
"languages": [
{
"locale": "string",
"preview_audio": "string"
}
],
"name": "simba-english"
}
],
"type": "shared",
"avatar_image": "string",
"preview_audio": "string",
"project_id": "proj_01kwxwcbyb6wk952swa0432cf1",
"can_manage": true,
"staff_pick_rank": 1,
"tags": [
"string"
]
}
]
}

Each voice’s models array reflects what your workspace can actually synthesize with it, so branch on that rather than assuming model support.

Get a voice

Fetch a single voice by its id:

GET
/v1/voices/:voice_id
from speechify import Speechify
client = Speechify(
token="YOUR_TOKEN_HERE",
)
client.voices.get(
voice_id="voice_id",
)

Download the sample

The audio sample a clone was built from is retrievable as WAV:

GET
/v1/voices/:voice_id/sample
from speechify import Speechify
client = Speechify(
token="YOUR_TOKEN_HERE",
)
client.voices.download_sample(
voice_id="voice_id",
)

Delete a voice

Remove voices you no longer need:

DELETE
/v1/voices/:voice_id
from speechify import Speechify
client = Speechify(
token="YOUR_TOKEN_HERE",
)
client.voices.delete(
voice_id="voice_id",
)

Deletion is immediate: synthesis requests that name the deleted voice’s id fail from that point on.
