Audio to Text Tool

The Convert Audio to Text Tool allows users to convert audio files into text format. Users can provide an audio file URL, select the language code, and optionally configure guardrails validators to ensure the extracted text meets specific criteria.

Steps to Use the Convert Audio to Text Tool​

Step 1: Access the Tool​

  • Click on Add User Step.
  • From the available options, select the Convert Audio to Text Tool.

Step 2: Input the Audio File URL​

You need to provide the URL of the audio file you want to convert to text. You can provide the audio file URL in two ways:

  • Manual Entry: Type the URL of the audio file directly into the input field.
  • User Input Variable: Use a user input variable to dynamically provide the audio file URL. To use input variables within your audio to text conversion, use the syntax {{variable_name}} to access the value of an input variable. For example, if there is an input parameter named “audioURL”, you can access its value using {{audioURL}}.

Step 3: Select the Language Code​

Choose the language code for the audio file to ensure accurate transcription. Choose the language of the audio file from the available options. This selection helps in accurate transcription of the audio content.

Step 4: Configure Guardrails Validators (Optional)​

You can set up guardrails validators to ensure the extracted text meets certain criteria. Set up validators based on your specific needs. This may include rules for text quality, error handling, or other criteria.

Step 5: Run the Tool​

Once you have entered the audio file URL and selected the language code, click on Run to start the audio to text conversion process. The tool will process your request and convert the audio file to text based on the chosen language code.

Step 6: View the Output​

The extracted text will be displayed in the results section. The results will be presented in a structured format, often in plain text, depending on the nature of the output.

Step 7: Utilize the Results​

You can now use the extracted text for further processing, analysis, or integration into your application.

Tips for Effective Use​

  • Clear URLs: Ensure the audio file URL is correct and accessible to avoid errors during the conversion process.
  • Appropriate Language Code: Select the correct language code that matches the language spoken in the audio file for accurate transcription.
  • Guardrails Validators: Configure guardrails validators to maintain text quality and handle errors gracefully.
