Sonix Tutorial - Sonix | Zapier - Hoe maak je een Zap die automatisch bestanden overschrijft wanneer ze in een Dropbox-map worden geplaatst?

: Hello, everyone. My Name is David Nguyen, and I’m one of the folks here at Sonix. Today, we’re going to show you how to automate your workflow with Sonix by using Zapier. We’re going to make a zap that watches a folder in your Dropbox account. And when you upload an audio or video file to that folder, we’ll have Sonix automatically transcribe that file for you. It’s super easy, and it should only take a few minutes.

Hoe maak je een zap in Zapier?

: So, first thing you want to do is click on make new zap button or make a zap, same thing. And you’re going to be taken to this page. It looks confusing, but it’s actually not. There are two parts to a zap. The first part is the trigger and the second is an action. So, in this instance, Dropbox is going to be a trigger because we’re going to watch a folder on Dropbox. And every single time a file is placed in that folder, that triggers an action, which is we’re going to transcribe the file by Sonix.

: So, you want to first set up the trigger. So, you’re going to search for Dropbox. Obviously, I know it’s right here, but we’re just going to go through the search box, and you’re going to choose new file and folder. Click that, save and continue.

Je Dropbox-account koppelen aan Zapier

: Now, you’re gonna have to link your Dropbox account to Zapier. So, what you’re going to do is you’re going to click connect an account. And you’re going to log in to Dropbox. Click sign in, get the authorization, and it should look something like this. My information is a little blurred out right now. So, you click test just to make sure everything works. It does. And then, you click save and continue.

Een map kiezen die Sonix in de gaten moet houden

: Now, you have to choose a folder that you’re going to watch. Please do not choose the route folder. That’s not a good idea. So, I just created a folder that’s called Sonix Uploaded Audio. Include file contents, yes. If you don’t see your folder in there, especially if you just created it and want to see in this page, please click refresh fields, and it will appear in that dropropdowndown.

: Now, click continue. And what it’s going to do is it’s going to look inside of that file or, excuse me, inside that folder for a file. In this case, it found File A, which is entitled Pete Combs Recording Tips, and there’s all this metadata that’s attached to it. This looks good because this file is in that folder. And then, you’re going to click continue. Cool. So, you have the trigger, a new file in a folder in Dropbox.

De actie instellen om een bestand automatisch te transcriberen

: Dus, de actie zal plaatsvinden onder Sonix. Dus, je wilt zoeken naar Sonix. Het ziet er ongeveer zo uit. En we willen een bestand transcriberen. Dus, klik op opslaan en ga verder. En nu moeten we onze Sonix account verbinden met Zapier. Dus, je wilt klikken op Connect an Account.

Waar kan ik de API-sleutel vinden?

: So, what we need from you is an API key. If you click on Sonix Preferences, it’s going to open up the preferences page witin Sonix. On that page, you’ll see an API key. Copy that, paste it here, click yes, and continue. It should look something like this. Click test just to make sure everything works. Success. So, now, click save and continue. Cool.

Extra instellingen met de zap

: Elke zap heeft een paar extra instellingen die u moet configureren. Eén daarvan is de taal. Welke taal zullen alle audiobestanden in die map zijn? Dus, er is een randgeval hier, namelijk als je zowel Engelse als bijvoorbeeld Spaanse bestanden hebt die je uploadt, moet je eigenlijk twee zaps maken, één voor alle Engelse bestanden en één voor alle Spaanse bestanden. En om het leven gemakkelijker te maken, moet u ze in aparte mappen plaatsen. Dus, voor ons bestand, Pete Combs Recording Tips, is het eigenlijk gesproken in het Engels met een Amerikaans accent. Dus, daar moet je op klikken. Bestands URL.

De metadata in het bestand doorlopen om de directe medialink te vinden

: So, now, you have to go through the metadata of that file, and what you want it to do for File URL is the direct media link. That looks like this. It’s a pretty long filename, but it’s encoded by Dropbox. So, that’s what you want to click. It’s going to look something crazy like that. And then, finally the name. This is how you want the transcript to show up once it’s fully uploaded and transcribed in Sonix.

: So, usually, you would select this, choose the file name, and then you could say uploaded via API or via Zapier. That’s just a good way, so that you know which files were automatically uploaded through Zapier and which files were manually uploaded by you through our uploading system. And then, you click continue.

: And then, you have an option right here to run a test with Sonix. Basically, transcribe the file that it found in that folder that you created. So, you can click that. It will send the test the Sonix. It will send that files to us, and we’ll automatically transcribe it, but we’ll skip that test for now. Then, you click finish.

Noem je zap

: And we’re not quite done yet. What you need to do is name your zap. So, in this case, it would be Upload to Dropbox – Transcribe with Sonix. There’s sometimes a folder that you could put it into to stay organized. And then, you need to turn on your zap. Here we go.

: But that’s it. It was super simple. Now, you can upload any file you want into that folder, and have it be transcribed by Sonix. If you have any other questions, please reach out to us at WeCare@Sonix.ai. All right. See you guys.
