Fireflies.ai Hello World

Overview

Minimal working examples demonstrating core Fireflies.ai GraphQL queries: list users, fetch transcripts, and read a meeting summary.

Examples

Start with a synthetic meeting that has invented speakers and a minimal summary. Query only an opaque ID and schema result, verify logs redact headers and content, and delete the test record after confirming retention behavior. Never use a real meeting as a quick-start fixture.

Prerequisites

• Completed fireflies-install-auth setup
• FIREFLIES_API_KEY environment variable set
• At least one meeting recorded in Fireflies

Instructions

Step 1: List Workspace Users

set -euo pipefail
curl -s -X POST https://api.fireflies.ai/graphql \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FIREFLIES_API_KEY" \
  -d '{"query": "{ users { name user_id email } }"}' | jq '.data.users'

Step 2: Fetch Recent Transcripts

const FIREFLIES_API = "https://api.fireflies.ai/graphql";

async function firefliesQuery(query: string, variables?: Record<string, any>) {
  const res = await fetch(FIREFLIES_API, {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      "Content-Type": "application/json",
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.FIREFLIES_API_KEY}`,
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ query, variables }),
  });
  const json = await res.json();
  if (json.errors) throw new Error(json.errors[0].message);
  return json.data;
}

// List 5 most recent transcripts
const data = await firefliesQuery(`
  query RecentMeetings {
    transcripts(limit: 5) {
      id
      title
      date
      duration
      organizer_email
      participants
    }
  }
`);

for (const t of data.transcripts) {
  console.log(`${t.title} (${t.duration}min) - ${t.date}`);
  console.log(`  Organizer: ${t.organizer_email}`);
  console.log(`  Participants: ${t.participants?.join(", ")}`);
}

Step 3: Read a Single Transcript with Summary

async function getTranscriptSummary(id: string) {
  return firefliesQuery(`
    query GetTranscript($id: String!) {
      transcript(id: $id) {
        id
        title
        date
        duration
        organizer_email
        speakers { id name }
        summary {
          overview
          short_summary
          action_items
          keywords
        }
      }
    }
  `, { id });
}

const { transcript } = await getTranscriptSummary("your-transcript-id");
console.log(`Title: ${transcript.title}`);
console.log(`Summary: ${transcript.summary.overview}`);
console.log(`Action Items: ${transcript.summary.action_items?.join("\n  - ")}`);
console.log(`Keywords: ${transcript.summary.keywords?.join(", ")}`);

Step 4: Python Hello World

import os, requests

API = "https://api.fireflies.ai/graphql"
HEADERS = {
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['FIREFLIES_API_KEY']}",
}

def gql(query, variables=None):
    resp = requests.post(API, json={"query": query, "variables": variables}, headers=HEADERS)
    data = resp.json()
    if "errors" in data:
        raise Exception(data["errors"][0]["message"])
    return data["data"]

# List recent meetings
meetings = gql("{ transcripts(limit: 5) { id title date duration } }")
for m in meetings["transcripts"]:
    print(f"{m['title']} - {m['duration']}min - {m['date']}")
