We are encountering an issue with the Convai API where characters are automatically assigned as male, even when a female voice is explicitly selected. For example, when creating a character with a female voice such as “Amanda Female Multilingual Voice,” the API response still returns voice_type: "MALE". This results in a mismatch between the selected voice gender (female), the actual character model gender (female), and the API-assigned voice type (male). This inconsistency affects animation selection, character behavior consistency, and voice-to-animation synchronization, creating challenges in ensuring accurate representation and fluid interactions. We would appreciate it if the Convai team could confirm whether this behavior is expected, consider automatically assigning voice_type based on the selected voice’s gender, and provide guidance on how best to handle gender-specific features within the API.
Can you please share a sample API call you are using which is causing this error.
