Automatically Transcribing Audio Files with Amazon Web Services

I wrote this Lambda function to automatically transcribe audio files that are uploaded to an S3 bucket. This is written in Python3 and utilizes the Boto3 library.

You will need to give your Lambda function permissions to access S3, Transcribe and CloudWatch.

The script will create an AWS Transcribe job with the format: 'filetranscription'+YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS

I will be iterating over the script to hopefully add in a web front end as well as potentially branching to do voice call transcriptions for phone calls and Amazon Connect.
