You can use the [File Picker](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/topics/components/pickers/file-picker) component.

Any updates on this? Adding file picker is a too poor user experience in my view

Very cool! Added it to a little note-taking app I had just created to replace Google Keep. So, you can type up or note or just record a note.

Wait a minute! OpenAI dictation into the note field…?

This is very cool, certainly in combination with the speech to text.

So I’m also testing with this, I added the component in a form and the audio is saved in a text field, however most of the time it doesn’t even save the audio file …  
Is this still a bug or what are the limitations?

Update: it is working actually, but you have to wait until it says the file is saved before you click the submit button. My bad 😉
