1. Accessing Pabbly Connect to Turn Audio into Text

To turn any audio into text, start by accessing Pabbly Connect. Go to the Pabbly website and log into your account. Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard where you will create a new workflow.

Create a workflow by clicking on “Create Workflow” and naming it “Turn Any Audio into Text in Just 5 Minutes.” Select the folder for your automation, and then click on “Create” to proceed with your setup.


2. Setting Up the Trigger in Google Drive Using Pabbly Connect

In the workflow, the first step is to set up a trigger. This trigger will activate whenever a new audio file is uploaded to Google Drive. Select Google Drive as your trigger application and choose the event as “New File in Specific Folder.” This ensures that your workflow responds to new uploads.

  • Choose your Google Drive account and grant necessary permissions.
  • Select the specific folder where you will upload audio files.
  • Click “Save and Send Test Request” to verify the connection.

Once the trigger is set, upload an audio file to Google Drive. Make sure to share the file with anyone who has the link to ensure Pabbly Connect can access it. This step is crucial for the workflow to function properly.


3. Generating Transcripts Using OpenAI Through Pabbly Connect

After setting up the trigger, the next step is to generate the transcript of the audio file. For this, you will use OpenAI as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Select “Generate Transcript” as your action event.

To connect OpenAI, you will need an API token. Click the provided link to access the OpenAI API keys page, create a new secret key, and copy it into Pabbly Connect. Ensure that the audio file URL is mapped correctly to allow for dynamic updates.

  • Map the audio file URL from Google Drive.
  • Select the model as “Whisper” for transcription.
  • Click “Save and Send Test Request” to generate the transcription.

Once the request is sent, you will receive a transcription response from OpenAI, which you can verify for accuracy against the audio content.


4. Saving Transcripts to Google Sheets Using Pabbly Connect

With the transcription received, the next step is to save it into Google Sheets. In your Pabbly Connect workflow, add a new action step and select Google Sheets as the application. Choose the action event “Add New Row” to store the transcription data.

Connect to Google Sheets by signing in with your Google account and granting the necessary permissions. Next, select the spreadsheet where you want to save the transcription data and map the fields accordingly.

  • Map the file name, file URL, and transcription text to the respective fields.
  • Click “Save and Send Test Request” to confirm the data is added.

After executing this step, check your Google Sheets to ensure that the file name, URL, and transcription have been successfully recorded.
