1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Audio Transcription

To start using Pabbly Connect for audio transcription, first, log in to your Pabbly Connect account. Once logged in, you will be able to create a new workflow that integrates with the Salid Transcription API. This integration will allow you to automate the transcription of audio files.

Navigate to the dashboard and click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow appropriately, such as ‘Audio Transcription Workflow’. This setup will facilitate the connection between your chosen file storage application and the Salid API for transcription.

2. Setting Up the Trigger Application in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will set up the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Choose Dropbox as your trigger application and select the event ‘New File’. This means that every time a new file is uploaded to your Dropbox, it will trigger the workflow to start the transcription process.

• Select Dropbox as the trigger application.
• Choose the trigger event as ‘New File’.
• Connect your Dropbox account to Pabbly Connect.

After setting up the trigger, you will receive a response that includes the file URL. This URL will be essential for the next step where we send the audio file to the Salid API for transcription.

3. Transcribing Audio Files Using Salid API

Next, we will use the Salid API to transcribe the audio files obtained from Dropbox through Pabbly Connect. In the action step of your workflow, search for ‘Salid Transcription API’ and select it. Choose the action event ‘Create AI Transcription’ to begin the transcription process.

When prompted, connect your Salid API account by entering your API key and organization name. These credentials can be found in your Salid API account under the API access section. After connecting, you will need to provide the direct Pabbly URL of the audio file that you want to transcribe.

• Enter the direct Pabbly URL of the audio file.
• Specify the language code (e.g., ‘en’ for English).
• Select options for word-level timestamps and diarization as needed.

Once all necessary fields are filled out, click on ‘Save’ to send the transcription request to Salid API. This step is crucial as it initiates the transcription process of your audio file.

4. Retrieving Transcription Data from Salid API

After sending the transcription request through Pabbly Connect, you will need to retrieve the transcription data. You can do this either by setting up a webhook URL or by using the action event ‘Get AI Transcription by Job ID’. If you opt for the webhook, copy the URL provided by Pabbly Connect and paste it into the Salid API settings.

If you choose to retrieve the transcription data using the job ID, make sure to add a delay in your workflow to allow Salid API sufficient time to process the transcription. This delay can be set based on the size of the audio file.

Add a delay action in Pabbly Connect. Select ‘Get AI Transcription by Job ID’ as the next action. Map the job ID from the previous step to retrieve the transcription text.

After this setup, you will receive the transcription text in the response, completing the process of audio transcription using Pabbly Connect.
