To search for a voice using its voice ID, you can follow these steps:

1. Via the Website:

   • Go to the My Voices section in your account.
   • Use the search box to locate the voice by entering its name, description, or tags.
   • If you already have the voice ID, you can directly find it by navigating to the specific voice, clicking "View," and checking the ID in the details panel.

2. Via the API:

   • Use the API's "Get Voices" endpoint to fetch all voices in your library.
   • Once you have the list of voices, you can match the desired voice by its voice_id. Here's an example code snippet to retrieve all voices and their IDs:

   import requests
   import json
   
   XI_API_KEY = "<your-api-key>"
   url = "https://api.elevenlabs.io/v1/voices"
   
   headers = {
       "Accept": "application/json",
       "xi-api-key": XI_API_KEY,
       "Content-Type": "application/json"
   }
   
   response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
   data = response.json()
   
   for voice in data['voices']:
       print(f"{voice['name']}; {voice['voice_id']}")
   

   Replace <your-api-key> with your actual API key. This will return all voices along with their IDs, allowing you to identify the one you're looking for.

For more details, you can refer to the API documentation.

if a voice has been removed from the library, how can i get it on a new account?

If a voice has been removed from the Voice Library by its creator, it is no longer accessible, even if you create a new account or purchase a subscription. The Voice Library is community-driven, and voice owners have full control over their creations. Once a voice is removed, it cannot be restored or re-added to your library unless you had previously saved it to your personal library before its removal.

For long-term access, it’s recommended to save voices you like to your library while they are available. If you have further questions, feel free to ask!

it says it expires in 2 years

If a voice has been removed from the Voice Library but has a 2-year notice period, you can still use it during that time if it was already saved to your account before the removal. However, if you're trying to access it on a new account, this won't be possible. Once a voice is removed, it is no longer discoverable or shareable with new accounts, even during the notice period.

To ensure long-term access to voices, it's recommended to save them to your account as soon as possible or consider creating your own voice using tools like the voice design or cloning features.

If you are trying to add a library voice to another account the simplest way to find the voice in My Voices. As long as the voice was created with Professional Voice Cloning (all current library voices but not some older voices that used to be in the library) it will have a share icon if you click View the voice in My Voices. That button will provide a re-sharing link.

After copying the link log into the account that you want to have the voice added to and paste the re-sharing link into your web browser. If the voice is still being shared it should let you add it to the account, but unfortunately if the owner disabled sharing it will fail.
