# Text Segmentation

Text segmentation segments text. For example, speech-to-text produces a record for each word that is detected in an audio track. You might need to combine words so that you have a record for each sentence that is spoken, because some analysis tasks, such as news segmentation, expect text in segments rather than as single words.

Configuration Parameter | Description

Input | The name of a track that contains the text to segment.
MaximumDuration | The maximum duration that is permitted for a single segment.
