These changes affect all API requests.

var request = {
  config: {
+    languageCode: 'en-US',  // <-- Now required!
    encoding: 'LINEAR16',
-    sampleRate: 16000,
+    sampleRateHertz: 16000,  // <-- Not `sampleRate` anymore!
  }
};

Additionally, the following endpointer types have been removed:

• Speech.endpointerTypes.START_OF_SPEECH
• Speech.endpointerTypes.END_OF_SPEECH
• Speech.endpointerTypes.END_OF_AUDIO

The event types that now exist are:

• Speech.eventTypes.ENDPOINTER_EVENT_UNSPECIFIED: No event specified.
• Speech.eventTypes.END_OF_SINGLE_UTTERANCE: Indicates that the server has detected the end of the user's speech utterance and expects no additional speech.
