Hi everyone, I want our users to record voice notes within GlideApps for e.g. hands-free documentation and transcribe this into fine tuned and summarized notes afterwards. Any experiences with this? A simple audio recording option Glide would be fine I guess, the rest can be zapped together. Thanks you!!
Unfortunately this is not possible as of now.
I imagine the flow would be:
- Record audio with an app on your device
- Upload that audio to Glide
- With a button, send that audio to Whisper API and get the transcription
- Use ChatGPT API to summarize that and get the text back to Glide using Glide API

Exactly, that would be the idea

True - update came after the question I believe but I had difficulties making it work since it connects to the google cloud api. Did you?
Weāre unfortunately still waiting for Google to finalize the OAuth flow verification. Shouldnāt be much longerā¦ We have to have it live in production to submit for verification, but nobody can use it unless its verified. Classic.

Thanks!
Wanna build it together? I have this very functionality already built for an iOS shortcut (built it for myself). Iām using OpenAIās Whisper to transcribe audio though. Adapting it for Glide would be awesome
Should be working now - weāre verified as of today. Also we added OpenAIās whisper speech to text engine 
both work well. I prefer whisperās output. Show us what you build!

It works! Goosebumps 
Very cool
Itās working for me using Whisper, however I couldnāt get the google version work.
According to some reviews I read it would be even a little bit better.
Iām getting this error message, probably Iāve don something wrong with the setup?
Itās using the same audio file that is working with the openai integration.

Does anyone know how to help me?

Do you know what file extension were you using for your upload? What type of device are you trying this on?
Hi @ThinhDinh ,
mp4, according to the URL generated by the Audio Recorder from Glide. I also downloaded the file to double check and it was working fine, I mean, it was a mp4 file indeed. I was using Glide app to run/simulate the Actions.
Which OS were you trialling it on: iOS/MacOS/Android/Windows?
The Whisper API is still in beta, and it fails on mp4 files created by Safari. Users have reported this on the OpenAI forums.

This is fantastic. Another great leap for Glide.
Stepping back, I celebrate Glideās new found revenue driver, which is to leverage users clamor to integrate external services. I really hope this helps minimize the cost for apps that are designed to be integration-free.
Hi @ThinhDinh,
MacOS/Safari.
I Think @david nailed. I will try to use Chrome. Hope it works.
All the best and thank you all the for the help!

@Sebastian_Daus have you compared how Whsiper performs in comparison to iOS or Androids dictation function?
