Exporting Your Transcript
Before you can upload your Fireflies.ai transcript, you need to make sure it's properly formatted.
In the Fireflies.ai web app, head to your transcript's editing page, make sure all speaker labels are in place, and click on the Download button, highlighted at the bottom.
Choose Download Transcript and select the SRT option. Make sure you have Speaker option selected. Hit Download - we're how ready to summarize!
Uploading with the UI
To upload your downloaded transcript using the Wordcab web app, start by clicking on the "Upload Transcript" button on the left or right side bars.
Choose Fireflies.ai, and then upload the .srt file we downloaded in the previous step. Click Summarize Transcript and you should have a summary in no time.
Uploading with the API
Uploading your *Fireflies.ai *.srt transcript with Python is really simple. Just make sure to include the source query parameter and assign it "fireflies" as a value.
import requests
endpoint = "https://wordcab.com/api/upload/" # <= Slash required
apikey = "YOUR_API_KEY"
file_name = "your_transcript.txt"
file_path = f"/path/to/your/file/{file_name}"
display_name = "Transcript Example"
source = "fireflies" # <= important
only_api = "false" # <= "false" is the default only_api value
files = {
"transcript": open(file_path, "rb")
}
params = {
"apikey": apikey,
"display_name": display_name,
"source": source,
"only_api": only_api
}
r = requests.post(endpoint, params=params, files=files)
job_name = r.json()["job_name"]
print(job_name)
You'll receive a job_name that you can use to poll your summarization job. Once the job is complete, the same request will output a summary, transcript, and a Wordcab web app link!
import requests
endpoint = "https://wordcab.com/api/upload" # <= Slash optional
# OR endpoint = "https://wordcab.com/api/meetings"
params = {
"apikey": apikey,
"job_name": job_name,
"summary_len": 3 # <= Defaults to 3, accepts value of 1-5
}
r = requests.get(endpoint, params=params)
print(r.json())
