To configure your Vapi assistant to speak in French or Dutch from the beginning:
Copy code
json
{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure", // Azure supports many languages
    "voiceId": "fr-FR-EliseNeural", // For French
    // Or "nl-NL-ColetteNeural" for Dutch
    "language": "fr-FR" // Match with voice language
  },
  "firstMessage": "Bonjour, comment puis-je vous aider aujourd'hui?" // Write in target language
}
*Important*: Set
smartEndpointingEnabled: false
as it only works for English. Sources: - [Vapi Multilingual Documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/customization/multilingual) - [Vapi Discord Channel](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1334385998423130174)

To get your assistant to speak in French and Dutch from the start, you'll need to select a voice provider like Azure or Eleven Labs, which support multiple languages. You don't need to configure each language separately; instead, choose a voice that can handle both. For the first message to be in the selected language, simply set the text-to-speech voice to your target language. You can write your prompts in either English or Dutch, depending on your audience, as the transcriber will translate them as per your configuration. For voice providers, explore options on 11labs or Azure as they offer a wide range of voices. Make sure you choose a transcriber and voice combo that suits both French and Dutch. If you want your assistant to switch seamlessly between these languages, ensure you've checked the language support on your chosen providers.

Hi @Shubham Bajaj Actually I can not write my prompts other than english language because it needs to be update according to the campaigns we are running. But I want that I can choose my language english french or dutch. Everything working fine in english but when it comes to other language I am not getting an idea I am sending you my current configuration "voice": { "model": "eleven_multilingual_v2", "speed": 1, "style": 0, "voiceId": "mCQMfsqGDT6IDkEKR20a", "provider": "11labs", "stability": 0.7, "similarityBoost": 0.6, "inputPunctuationBoundaries": [ "。" ] },

can you send a call ID for the configuration adjustment? I will inspect the prompt and settings to make sure they are correct for your desired result.
