200: OK
A Transaction ID is returned in the JSON body once the processing job is launched successfully. This Transaction ID can be used to check the status of the job or fetch the results of the job once the metadata is computed

}
400: Bad Request
This usually happens when the settings for computing the metadata are not configured correctly. Check the request object and also the dependencies required to compute certain metadata objects. ( For Example: Speech to Text has to be enabled for Action Items to be enabled)

"text":"A watch is a portable timepiece intended to be carried or worn by a person. It is designed to keep a consistent movement despite the motions caused by the person's activities. A wristwatch is designed to be worn around the wrist, attached by a watch strap or other type of bracelet, including metal bands, leather straps or any other kind of bracelet. A pocket watch is designed for a person to carry in a pocket, often attached to a chain. The study of timekeeping is known as horology. Watches progressed in the 17th century from spring-powered clocks, which appeared as early as the 14th century. During most of its history the watch was a mechanical device, driven by clockwork, powered by winding a mainspring, and keeping time with an oscillating balance wheel. These are called mechanical watches.[1][2] In the 1960s the electronic quartz watch was invented, which was powered by a battery and kept time with a vibrating quartz crystal.
By the 1980s the quartz watch had taken over most of the market from the mechanical watch. Historically, this is called the quartz revolution (also known as quartz crisis in Swiss)."
