Connect your app to Fireflies
You can connect your Lovable app to Fireflies to automatically get meeting transcripts, summaries, and insights. This lets your app use information from your meetings, like who said what and what decisions were made.
Anyone building an app that needs to use information from recorded meetings, like sales call reviews or task trackers.
Do this, in order
- 1
Sign in to your Fireflies account.
You need to access your Fireflies settings to get an API key.
- 2
Go to your Developer settings (Fireflies API) and copy the generated API key.
This key is like a password that allows Lovable to securely access your Fireflies data.
- 3
In Lovable, open 'Connectors' and select 'Fireflies'.
This is where you manage all external services connected to your Lovable projects.
- 4
Click 'Add connection', give it a display name (like 'Fireflies Production'), and paste your API key.
The display name helps you identify this specific connection, and the API key links your Lovable project to your Fireflies account.
- 5
Click 'Connect'.
Lovable will check if the key works, and if it does, your app can then use Fireflies meeting data.
Paste this into your project
Connect my app to Fireflies so it can access meeting transcripts, AI summaries, and speaker details. I've already created an API key in Fireflies. I need to know how to add this connection in Lovable and then how to use it in my app to retrieve meeting data.
Words decoded
- API key
- A secret code that acts like a password, allowing one computer program (like your Lovable app) to securely talk to another program (like Fireflies) and access its features or data.
- Transcript
- A written record of everything that was said in a meeting, usually with details about who spoke each part.
- AI summaries
- Short versions of meetings, created by artificial intelligence, that highlight important points, action items, and overall themes.
- Rate limits
- Restrictions on how many times your app can ask for information from Fireflies within a certain period, to prevent overuse of their service.
Where people get stuck
- Never share your Fireflies API key publicly, as it functions like a password.
- Be aware that all API usage consumes your Fireflies API quota, and you are responsible for Fireflies billing.
- Remember that Fireflies connections are read-only; your app cannot create, modify, or delete meetings or transcripts.
- Understand that Fireflies has rate limits, especially on free and pro plans, so your app might need to store data temporarily to avoid hitting these limits.
