Answer 1

@SanK, are you trying to do Speech Language Detection or TextAnalytics Language Detection? Because that is two different features, make sure your subscription register with the correct one.

Speech Language Detection - Detect the language from Speech. TextAnalytics Language Detection - Detect the language from Text.

Answer 2

Local Run

docker run --rm -it -p 5003:5003 --memory 1g --cpus 1 mcr.microsoft.com/azure-cognitive-services/speechservices/language-detection Eula=accept Billing=https://.api.cognitive.microsoft.com/sts/v1.0/issuetoken ApiKey=*** HTTP_PROXY=********

In your case, your Billing value is incorrect: you have set https://.api.cognitive.microsoft.com/sts/v1.0/issuetoken but you should use your Endpoint URI which is visible on your Azure resource Overview page, see below for my resource:

This is well described in the official documentation (see here)

Consumption

Then, with your postman, you should call your local instance. In your capture, you are calling the API on Microsoft side (https://westeurope...). You should use http://localhost:5003/speech/languagedetection/cognitiveservices/v1 as visible in the swagger capture you posted
