Usage

Fetching and Chaining Transcripts

The Get List operation under Transcript retrieves a paginated list of meetings based on optional filters:

• hostEmail, organizerEmail, participantEmail
• title, userId, mine
• fromDate / toDate
• keyword, scope
• organizers, participants (comma-separated)
• channelId

This is often the first step in a workflow. Iterate over the returned transcript IDs and pass them into:

• Get — fetch the full transcript content
• Get Summary — retrieve summary and key takeaways
• Get Analytics — access analytics like sentiment, topic extraction, and more

These operations chain naturally for reporting, insights, or downstream automation.

📘 For a full reference of transcript fields and response structure, see the Fireflies Transcript Schema.

Working with Bites

Bites are short clips cut from a transcript. Use Create to clip a specific time range from a meeting by providing transcriptId, startTime, and endTime. You can set a name, choose mediaType (audio or video), and control visibility with privacies.

Use Get List to browse existing bites, optionally filtering to your own clips (mine) or your team’s (myTeam).

Live Meetings

Use Get Active Meetings to see which meetings are currently in progress. Once you have a meeting link, Add to Live Meeting sends the Fireflies bot to join and record it. You can pass an optional title, meetingPassword, expected duration, and transcription language.

Team Analytics

Get Team Analytics returns workspace-wide analytics and requires admin privileges. Pass startTime and endTime as ISO date strings to scope the report to a specific period.

Credentials

To use the Fireflies node, you need to authenticate with your Fireflies API key.

1. Log in to your Fireflies.ai account
2. Go to Settings > Developer Settings
3. Generate or copy your existing API key
4. Use this API key in your n8n credentials for the Fireflies node

The node uses API Key authentication to securely connect to the Fireflies.ai API.
