1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Audio File Conversion

To convert audio files into summarized transcripts, we will use Pabbly Connect as our main integration platform. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and signing up for a free account if you don’t have one.

Once logged in, click on the ‘Access Now’ button for Pabbly Connect. This will take you to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow for your AI agent that will handle audio file processing.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will create a workflow using Pabbly Connect to manage audio files. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name your workflow, such as ‘AI Agent for Audio File Summary’. You can choose any name that suits your project.

• Select a folder for your workflow in Pabbly Connect.
• Click on the ‘Create’ button to finalize your workflow setup.

After creating the workflow, you will see two sections: the trigger and action windows. The trigger window will capture new audio files uploaded to your Google Drive, while the action window will process these files through OpenAI.

3. Setting Up Google Drive with Pabbly Connect

To begin, we need to connect Google Drive to Pabbly Connect so that it can monitor a specific folder for new audio files. In the trigger section, search for ‘Google Drive’ and select it as the app.

For the trigger event, choose ‘New File in Specific Folder’. Click on ‘Connect’ and then ‘Add New Connection’. Sign in with your Google account and allow access to Pabbly Connect. Select the folder where you will upload your audio files.

• Ensure the share permissions for the folder are set to allow anyone with the link to access the files.
• Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to confirm the connection and retrieve the latest file details.

After confirming the connection, you should see the details of the most recent audio file uploaded to your Google Drive.

4. Transcribing Audio Files Using OpenAI

Now that we have connected Google Drive, the next step is to transcribe the audio file using Pabbly Connect and OpenAI. In the action section, search for ‘OpenAI’ and select it as the app.

Choose the action event ‘Generate Transcript’ and connect your OpenAI account by entering your API key. You can find your API key in your OpenAI account dashboard under the API section.

Map the audio file URL from the Google Drive trigger response to the OpenAI action step. Select the model you want to use for transcription, such as Whisper GPT.

After setting this up, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. You should receive a response containing the transcription of your audio file.

5. Summarizing Transcripts and Updating Google Sheets

With the transcription ready, the next step is to summarize it using Pabbly Connect and OpenAI. Add another action step and select OpenAI again, this time choosing the action event ‘Chat GPT’.

Since you have already connected OpenAI, you can use the existing connection. Set the prompt to summarize the transcription and map the transcription text into the prompt field.

After summarizing, add another action step to connect Google Sheets. Select the action event ‘Add New Row’ and connect your Google Sheets account.

Map the necessary fields like file name, file URL, summary, and transcription into the respective columns of your Google Sheet. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to add a new row with the updated details.
