When using OpenAI realtime transcription for a STT node, are we able to get logprobs like the regular API? I’d like to use them for low-confidence transcript rejection

Thanks for reaching out, Alexander. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.


Just a heads-up: OpenAI's realtime transcription for STT nodes doesn’t provide `logprobs` like the regular API does. When you get responses from the realtime transcription, they come through WebSocket events and include only the transcription text—so, no probabilistic details like `logprobs` are included.
