How this automation works

Record completed AssemblyAI transcripts in Google Sheets. When AssemblyAI finishes transcribing an audio file, this Applet adds a new row containing the transcript date, duration, full text, and a link to the source audio. This is ideal for teams and creators who want searchable meeting notes, content logs, or compliance records using AssemblyAI and Google Sheets.
