Short answer: the docs are correct. The AttributeError means your local Python SDK is older than the version that added the speech_to_text namespace.

What to do:

• Use the official ElevenLabs Python SDK and ensure it’s the current version (installing it per the docs will fetch the latest): pip install elevenlabs. See Libraries & SDKs. (elevenlabs.io)
• The Speech to Text API is exposed in the SDK as client.speech_to_text.convert(), as shown in the API reference (“Create transcript”). (elevenlabs.io)
• The cookbook quickstart you followed uses the same method and model_id="scribe_v1". (elevenlabs.io)
• Scribe v1 is the STT model for transcription. (elevenlabs.io)

If you still see the AttributeError after reinstalling, double-check you are importing the official client (from elevenlabs import ElevenLabs or from elevenlabs.client import ElevenLabs) as shown in the API reference. (elevenlabs.io)

client.speech_to_text.convert()

AttributeError: 'ElevenLabs' object has no attribute 'speech_to_text'. Did you mean: 'speech_to_speech'?
