Azure cognitive Service - Speech sample code failed with authentication error - azure

Question

The program returns: CANCELED: Reason=Error ErrorDetails=WebSocket Upgrade failed with an authentication error (401). Please check for correct subscription key (or authorization token) and region name. SessionId: cbfcdf7f26304343a08de6c398652053
I'm using my free trial subscription key and westus region. This is the sample code found here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/speech-service/quickstarts/speech-to-text-from-microphone?tabs=unity%2Cx-android%2Clinux%2Cjava-runtime&pivots=programming-language-csharp

The sample code you pasted above still has the placeholder values for region and subscription key. Just double checking that you did in fact replace those strings with your own subscription key and region? If that's true, can you please turn on logging, run the code again, and then provide the log? We can help diagnose from there...
To turn on logging, see https://aka.ms/speech/logging.
