■Overview
Do you spend too much time converting audio files into specific formats for tasks such as handling interview or meeting recordings? Manually downloading files, converting them with an online tool, and sharing them by email is time-consuming and prone to errors. This workflow automates the entire process: when an audio file is submitted through Google Forms, the RPA feature operates an online tool to automatically convert the file format and then sends it via Gmail. It’s the ideal solution for anyone looking for a way to convert audio files online.
■Who should use this template
- Media and web content professionals who frequently share interview or web meeting recordings with stakeholders
- Anyone who manually converts and shares audio files and wants to improve operational efficiency
- Anyone who wants to automate online audio file conversion within a workflow using Google Forms and Gmail
■Benefits of using this template
- From file submission through Google Forms to conversion and sharing, everything is processed automatically, reducing the time previously spent on manual tasks.
- Reduce the risk of human errors such as file conversion mistakes, missing email attachments, and incorrect recipients, while improving operational accuracy.
■Flowbot steps
- First, connect Google Forms, Google Drive, and Gmail to Yoom.
- Next, select Google Forms as the trigger, set the “When a response is submitted to the form” action, and specify the target form ID.
- Next, set Google Drive’s “Download a file” action as an operation to download the audio file attached to the form.
- Next, set the RPA feature’s “Operate the browser” action as an operation and record the steps for converting the file with an online audio conversion tool.
- Next, set the Data Transformation features “Replace data using regular expressions” or “Convert file name” as operations to format the file name.
- Finally, set Gmail’s “Send an email” action as an operation, attach the converted file, and send it to the specified recipients.
※“Trigger”: An action that starts the flow. “Operation”: An action that processes data within the flow after the trigger starts.
■Customization options
- For the Google Forms trigger, you can set any form ID. You can also retrieve form responses, such as file names and respondent information, and use them in subsequent operations.
- With the RPA feature (browser operation), you can freely configure the online conversion tool URL and a series of browser actions, including uploading the file, selecting the output format, and downloading the converted file.
- With the Data Transformation feature, you can freely customize the converted file name. For example, you can rename it to “Converted_Original file name_Date.”
- In the Gmail sending settings, you can specify recipients for To, Cc, and Bcc, and embed Google Forms responses as variables in the email body.
■Important notes
- Connect Google Forms, Google Drive, and Gmail to Yoom.
- The browser operation feature is available only on the Success Plan. On the Free, Personal, Mini, and Team Plans, operations configured in the Flowbot will result in an error.
- Paid plans, including the Success Plan, offer a two-week free trial. During the free trial, you can use restricted apps and browser operation features. For details, see the pricing plans page.
- For instructions on configuring browser operations, see How to configure “Operate the browser”.
- Customize browser operations to match the website you use.
- The maximum downloadable file size is 300 MB. Depending on the app specifications, the limit may be less than 300 MB.
