TL;DR IBM Cloud is withdrawing support for TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 across many cloud products and services. This does not appear to effect the voicemail speech to text add-on.
I've been using the voicemail speech to text for a while and it works great in my low volume application. Recently IBM Cloud has been peppering me with emails warning that they will only support TLS 1.2 starting March 1, 2018. For example...
So today I figured I would check it see if the PIAF add-on script uses TLS 1.2. Based on the info under "Watson products and services" on this support document, it was clear we just need to change stream.watsonplatform.net/ into stream-TLS12.watsonplatform.net/ to see if our implementation passes the TLS1.2 only test. Good news, it does! But don't leave it that way because these special test hostnames will go away after March 1.
This should mean no action is required and come March 1st everything will continue working as expecting (at least as far as Watson STT is concerned)

Attention IBM Cloud User:
FINAL REMINDER!
On March 1, 2018 IBM Cloud will withdraw support for TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 across many of our cloud products and services as part of our commitment to offering a cloud that is secure to the core and in alignment with industry best practices for security and data privacy.
Read our announcement for a list of affected products and services, what actions you need to take to confirm you will not be impacted and other important details.
Regards,
The IBM Cloud Team
