Q: I'm new to this api thing.

Firstly, from what I understand, this isn't like other programs whereby you upload files and get transcriptions.

This is like if I want to use say Make/Zapier/Active Pieces, etc and send a request to the API and get transcriptions back. AM I right?

Also, would i be able to get transcriptions for any video/audio online? For example, YouTube or some podcast online. Is it that simple as inputting some info or link (e.g. Youtube link or podcast link) or do I have to do a bit more work?

I am trying to automate processes using make/active pieces, etc. Thanks.

(part 1 response) Thanks, I think I kind of get it. I would need to upload my own video. And you have free temporary storage which we can use to upload our videos/audios and then do what we need to do.

Correct. Let us know what your ideal user experience would be and we'll work on adding it to our short-term roadmap.

(part 2 response) I know many people use make/active pieces, etc., but are not very technical. If you could do a quick few minutes video of uploading a file(s) to your free storage, use make/active pieces HTTP request using the API, etc., that would help people understand what to do for a layperson who is new to using make/activepieces, etc.
