Credentials

Set these per environment. See Connect an integration.

Setup

  1. Create a Deepgram account: Go to https://console.deepgram.com and sign up. New accounts receive free credits to test transcription without a credit card.
  2. Create an API key: In the console, open your project, go to Settings → API Keys, and create a new key. Choose the Member role (or narrower) for day-to-day transcription.
  3. Store the key: Copy the key and add it to your .env file as DEEPGRAM_API_KEY=…
  4. Verify access: Run the List Projects tool to confirm the key works, then transcribe a sample file such as https://dpgr.am/spacewalk.wav

Provider notes

  • Authentication uses the Authorization header with the Token prefix (Authorization: Token <key>), not Bearer
  • Transcription is billed per minute of audio and draws down project credits
  • The Transcribe URL tool only handles remote files - uploading raw audio bytes is not supported by this connector
