  Encoding of the output audio.

* `container` string

  Container specifies the file format wrapper for the output audio. The available options depend on the encoding type..

* `text` string required

  The text content to be converted to speech

* `sample_rate` number

  Sample Rate specifies the sample rate for the output audio. Based on the encoding, different sample rates are supported. For some encodings, the sample rate is not configurable
