1.1.1 Non-text Content
WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.1.1 Non-text Content (Level A) requires that all non-text content (images, charts, audio, video, controls) presented to the user has a text alternative that serves the equivalent purpose — with specific exceptions for decoration, formatting, time-based media, tests/exercises, and CAPTCHA (which themselves have additional requirements).
About 1.1.1 Non-text Content
