Documentation

Authentication

There are 4 ways to provide your API keys, in order of precedence:

⚠️ We recommended using the environment variables to load the API key instead of having it hard coded in your source. It is not recommended use this method in production, but only for accepting user credentials, local testing and quick start scenarios.

Pass keys directly with constructor ⚠️
Unity Scriptable Object ⚠️
Load key from configuration file
Use System Environment Variables

Pass keys directly with constructor

var api = new ElevenLabsClient("yourApiKey");

Or create a ElevenLabsAuthentication object manually

var api = new ElevenLabsClient(new ElevenLabsAuthentication("yourApiKey"));

Unity Scriptable Object

You can save the key directly into a scriptable object that is located in the Assets/Resources folder.

You can create a new one by using the context menu of the project pane and creating a new ElevenLabsConfiguration scriptable object.

Load key from configuration file

Attempts to load api keys from a configuration file, by default .elevenlabs in the current directory, optionally traversing up the directory tree or in the user's home directory.

To create a configuration file, create a new text file named .elevenlabs and containing the line:

Json format

{
  "apiKey": "yourApiKey",
}

You can also load the file directly with known path by calling a static method in Authentication:

var api = new ElevenLabsClient(new ElevenLabsAuthentication().LoadFromDirectory("your/path/to/.elevenlabs"));;

Use System Environment Variables

Use your system's environment variables specify an api key to use.

Use ELEVEN_LABS_API_KEY for your api key.

var api = new ElevenLabsClient(new ElevenLabsAuthentication().LoadFromEnvironment());

API Proxy

Using either the ElevenLabs-DotNet or com.rest.elevenlabs packages directly in your front-end app may expose your API keys and other sensitive information. To mitigate this risk, it is recommended to set up an intermediate API that makes requests to ElevenLabs on behalf of your front-end app. This library can be utilized for both front-end and intermediary host configurations, ensuring secure communication with the ElevenLabs API.

Front End Example

In the front end example, you will need to securely authenticate your users using your preferred OAuth provider. Once the user is authenticated, exchange your custom auth token with your API key on the backend.

Follow these steps:

Setup a new project using either the ElevenLabs-DotNet or com.rest.elevenlabs packages.
Authenticate users with your OAuth provider.
After successful authentication, create a new ElevenLabsAuthentication object and pass in the custom token.
Create a new ElevenLabsSettings object and specify the domain where your intermediate API is located.
Pass your new auth and settings objects to the ElevenLabsClient constructor when you create the client instance.

Here's an example of how to set up the front end:

var authToken = await LoginAsync();
var auth = new ElevenLabsAuthentication(authToken);
var settings = new ElevenLabsSettings(domain: "api.your-custom-domain.com");
var api = new ElevenLabsClient(auth, settings);

This setup allows your front end application to securely communicate with your backend that will be using the ElevenLabs-DotNet-Proxy, which then forwards requests to the ElevenLabs API. This ensures that your ElevenLabs API keys and other sensitive information remain secure throughout the process.

Back End Example

In this example, we demonstrate how to set up and use ElevenLabsProxyStartup in a new ASP.NET Core web app. The proxy server will handle authentication and forward requests to the ElevenLabs API, ensuring that your API keys and other sensitive information remain secure.

Create a new ASP.NET Core minimal web API project.
Add the ElevenLabs-DotNet nuget package to your project.
- Powershell install: Install-Package ElevenLabs-DotNet-Proxy
- Dotnet install: dotnet add package ElevenLabs-DotNet-Proxy
- Manually editing .csproj: <PackageReference Include="ElevenLabs-DotNet-Proxy" />
Create a new class that inherits from AbstractAuthenticationFilter and override the ValidateAuthenticationAsync method. This will implement the IAuthenticationFilter that you will use to check user session token against your internal server.
In Program.cs, create a new proxy web application by calling ElevenLabsProxyStartup.CreateDefaultHost method, passing your custom AuthenticationFilter as a type argument.
Create ElevenLabsAuthentication and ElevenLabsClientSettings as you would normally with your API keys, org id, or Azure settings.

public partial class Program
{
    private class AuthenticationFilter : AbstractAuthenticationFilter
    {
        public override async Task ValidateAuthenticationAsync(IHeaderDictionary request)
        {
            await Task.CompletedTask; // remote resource call

            // You will need to implement your own class to properly test
            // custom issued tokens you've setup for your end users.
            if (!request["xi-api-key"].ToString().Contains(TestUserToken))
            {
                throw new AuthenticationException("User is not authorized");
            }
        }
    }

    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var client = new ElevenLabsClient();
        var proxy = ElevenLabsProxyStartup.CreateDefaultHost<AuthenticationFilter>(args, client);
        proxy.Run();
    }
}

Once you have set up your proxy server, your end users can now make authenticated requests to your proxy api instead of directly to the ElevenLabs API. The proxy server will handle authentication and forward requests to the ElevenLabs API, ensuring that your API keys and other sensitive information remain secure.

Editor Dashboard

You can perform all of the same actions from the ElevenLabs website, in the Editor using the ElevenLabs Dashboard!

Window/Dashboards/ElevenLabs

Speech Synthesis Dashboard

Just like in the ElevenLabs website, you can synthesize new audio clips using available voices. This tool makes it even more handy as the clips are automatically downloaded and imported into your project, ready for you to use!

Voice Lab Dashboard

Just like in the ElevenLabs website, you can manage all your voices directly in the editor.

Voice Designer Dashboard

Selecting Create New Voice will display a popup where you can design entirely new voices using ElevenLabs generative models.

Voice Cloning Dashboard

Additionally, you're also able to clone a voice from sample recordings.

History Editor Dashboard

You also have access to the full list of all your generated samples, ready for download.

Text to Speech

Convert text to speech.

var api = new ElevenLabsClient();
var text = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.";
var voice = (await api.VoicesEndpoint.GetAllVoicesAsync()).FirstOrDefault();
var defaultVoiceSettings = await api.VoicesEndpoint.GetDefaultVoiceSettingsAsync();
var voiceClip = await api.TextToSpeechEndpoint.TextToSpeechAsync(text, voice, defaultVoiceSettings);
audioSource.PlayOneShot(voiceClip.AudioClip);

Note: if you want to save the voice clip into your project, you will need to copy it from the cached path into the specified location in your project:

voiceClip.CopyIntoProject(editorDownloadDirectory);

Stream Text To Speech

Stream text to speech.

var api = new ElevenLabsClient();
var text = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.";
var voice = (await api.VoicesEndpoint.GetAllVoicesAsync()).FirstOrDefault();
var partialClips = new Queue<AudioClip>();
var voiceClip = await api.TextToSpeechEndpoint.StreamTextToSpeechAsync(
    text,
    voice,
    partialClip =>
    {
        // Note: Best to queue them and play them in update loop!
        // See TextToSpeech sample demo for details
        partialClips.Enqueue(partialClip);
    });
// The full completed clip:
audioSource.clip = voiceClip.AudioClip;
