What happened to Multi-lingual/Multi-language Settings?

I'm trying to assign language to my assistants but that feature seem to not exist. Am I missing something or maybe not looking in the right place? I'm trying to assign different languages to specific assistants. Vapi Assistants does support languages in Spanish, French and Madarin, correct?

To assign a specific language to your Vapi assistant, set the voice property to a language-specific voice model.
For example, to make your assistant speak Spanish using Azure:

{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure",
    "voiceId": "es-ES-ElviraNeural"
  }
}

{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure",
    "voiceId": "es-ES-ElviraNeural"
  }
}

You can find and select other language voices (including French and likely Mandarin) in the dashboard's voice tab.

Vapi support so many languages. Do you want for a agent to support multi language?

Vapi•4mo ago

You can assign different languages to your Vapi assistants by setting the voice property to a language-specific voice model for each assistant. For example, to have an assistant speak Spanish, you would select a Spanish voice model like es-ES-ElviraNeural. Similar options are available for French and likely Mandarin, so you can configure each assistant individually to support the language you need. There isn't a dedicated "multi-language settings" section—language assignment is handled through the voice model selection for each assistant. To assign a specific language to your Vapi assistant, set the voice property to a language-specific voice model. For example, to make your assistant speak Spanish using Azure:

{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure",
    "voiceId": "es-ES-ElviraNeural"
  }
}

{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure",
    "voiceId": "es-ES-ElviraNeural"
  }
}

Not resolved. Why do we have to use "code" to set the languages? (Millis example attached) This would make things so much easier and more manageable when it can be switch is seconds, just be selecting.

Currently, Vapi does not offer a toggle-based or dropdown UI for multi-language support.
To set your assistant's language, you need to specify the voice property with a language-specific voice model, like this:

{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure",
    "voiceId": "es-ES-ElviraNeural"
  }
}

{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure",
    "voiceId": "es-ES-ElviraNeural"
  }
}

You can browse available voices for different languages in the dashboard's voice tab, but all language assignment is handled through configuration, not a UI toggle.
See multilingual support documentation for more details. Source: - Vapi Multilingual Support Documentation To enable multi-language support for a Vapi agent, you currently need to set the voice property to a language-specific voice model in your assistant's configuration. For example, to make your agent speak Spanish using Azure:

{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure",
    "voiceId": "es-ES-ElviraNeural"
  }
}

{
  "voice": {
    "provider": "azure",
    "voiceId": "es-ES-ElviraNeural"
  }
}

You can browse and select other language voices in the dashboard's voice tab. At this time, there is no UI toggle or automatic language switching feature—each assistant is configured for one language at a time.

Vapi supports Spanish, French, and Mandarin, but to assign languages to specific assistants, you need to create separate assistants and configure each one’s Speech-to-Text, Language Model, and Text-to-Speech settings to the desired language, as there isn’t a single global language setting..
