Interact with ElevenLabs Conversational AI API

Voice → Get

AI-generated

Overview

This node integrates with the ElevenLabs Conversational AI API, allowing users to interact with various resources such as agents, conversations, knowledge bases, phones, and voices. Specifically, for the Voice - Get operation, it retrieves detailed information about a specific voice by its unique ID. This is useful when you want to fetch metadata or properties of a particular voice available in the ElevenLabs system.

Practical examples include:

  • Fetching voice details to display or use in further processing.
  • Validating if a voice ID exists before using it in text-to-speech or conversational flows.
  • Retrieving voice attributes for dynamic selection in multi-voice applications.

Properties

Name Meaning
Voice ID The unique identifier of the voice to retrieve. This is required to specify which voice's details should be fetched.

Output

The output contains a JSON object representing the retrieved voice's details. This typically includes all metadata associated with the voice such as its name, description, labels, category, type, creation date, and other relevant attributes defined by the ElevenLabs API.

If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown here), it would generally relate to audio samples or voice files, but for the "Get Voice" operation, the output is primarily structured JSON data describing the voice.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the ElevenLabs Conversational AI API.
  • Needs an API key credential configured in n8n to authenticate requests.
  • No additional external dependencies are indicated beyond the ElevenLabs API access.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Voice ID: The node requires a valid voice ID; providing an empty or incorrect ID will cause errors.
    • Authentication failures: Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
    • Network or API downtime: Connectivity issues with the ElevenLabs API can cause request failures.
  • Error messages:

    • Errors related to "voice not found" indicate the provided Voice ID does not exist or is inaccessible.
    • Authentication errors suggest invalid or expired API credentials.
    • Rate limiting or quota exceeded errors may occur if the API usage limits are surpassed.

To resolve these, verify the Voice ID, check API credentials, and ensure network connectivity.
