Hi @wodka, alternatives should exist currently on the individual channel returned in the transcript. Their location on a result would look like:

const response = await deepgram.transcription.preRecorded(fileSource, {
  punctuate: true,
});
const channel0Alternatives= response.results.channels[0].alternatives

Am I misunderstanding?

[wodka]

no you are completely right - I missed this. Thank you!
