Fireflies.ai Multi-Environment Setup

Overview

Configure Fireflies.ai with isolated API keys, webhook URLs, and settings per environment. Each environment gets its own Fireflies workspace or API key to prevent cross-environment data leakage.

Prerequisites

• Separate environment identities, secret-manager references, webhook endpoints, budgets, and responsible owners.
• A guard that prevents development or pull-request jobs from reaching production workspaces or transcript destinations.
• Synthetic fixtures and a rollback test for environment configuration changes.

Examples

Send a fictional transcript event to staging and verify its secret, storage, and webhook route cannot access production. Rotate the staging secret, confirm the old credential is denied, and record the change without including any key or transcript content.

Environment Strategy

Instructions

Step 1: Environment Configuration Module

// config/fireflies.ts
interface FirefliesConfig {
  apiKey: string;
  apiUrl: string;
  webhookSecret: string;
  cache: { enabled: boolean; ttlSeconds: number };
  debug: boolean;
  timeout: number;
  maxRetries: number;
}

const configs: Record<string, Partial<FirefliesConfig>> = {
  development: {
    apiKey: process.env.FIREFLIES_API_KEY_DEV || "",
    webhookSecret: process.env.FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET_DEV || "dev-secret-16char",
    cache: { enabled: false, ttlSeconds: 60 },
    debug: true,
    timeout: 30000,
    maxRetries: 1,
  },
  staging: {
    apiKey: process.env.FIREFLIES_API_KEY_STAGING || "",
    webhookSecret: process.env.FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET_STAGING || "",
    cache: { enabled: true, ttlSeconds: 300 },
    debug: false,
    timeout: 15000,
    maxRetries: 3,
  },
  production: {
    apiKey: process.env.FIREFLIES_API_KEY_PROD || "",
    webhookSecret: process.env.FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET_PROD || "",
    cache: { enabled: true, ttlSeconds: 3600 },
    debug: false,
    timeout: 10000,
    maxRetries: 5,
  },
};

function detectEnvironment(): string {
  if (process.env.NODE_ENV === "production") return "production";
  if (process.env.NODE_ENV === "staging" || process.env.VERCEL_ENV === "preview") return "staging";
  return "development";
}

export function getFirefliesConfig(): FirefliesConfig {
  const env = detectEnvironment();
  const config = configs[env];

  if (!config?.apiKey) {
    throw new Error(`FIREFLIES_API_KEY not configured for environment: ${env}`);
  }

  return {
    apiUrl: "https://api.fireflies.ai/graphql",
    ...config,
  } as FirefliesConfig;
}

Step 2: Environment-Aware Client

// lib/fireflies-client.ts
import { getFirefliesConfig } from "../config/fireflies";

export function createFirefliesClient() {
  const config = getFirefliesConfig();

  return {
    async query(gql: string, variables?: Record<string, any>) {
      if (config.debug) {
        console.log(`[Fireflies:${detectEnvironment()}] Query:`, gql.slice(0, 100));
      }

      const controller = new AbortController();
      const timeout = setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), config.timeout);

      try {
        const res = await fetch(config.apiUrl, {
          method: "POST",
          headers: {
            "Content-Type": "application/json",
            Authorization: `Bearer ${config.apiKey}`,
          },
          body: JSON.stringify({ query: gql, variables }),
          signal: controller.signal,
        });

        const json = await res.json();
        if (json.errors) throw new Error(json.errors[0].message);
        return json.data;
      } finally {
        clearTimeout(timeout);
      }
    },

    getConfig() {
      return { environment: detectEnvironment(), ...config, apiKey: "[REDACTED]" };
    },
  };
}

Step 3: Secret Management by Platform

Local Development:

# .env.local (git-ignored)
FIREFLIES_API_KEY_DEV=your-dev-key
FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET_DEV=your-dev-secret-16ch

GitHub Actions:

# .github/workflows/deploy.yml
jobs:
  deploy-staging:
    environment: staging
    env:
      FIREFLIES_API_KEY_STAGING: ${{ secrets.FIREFLIES_API_KEY_STAGING }}
      FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET_STAGING: ${{ secrets.FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET_STAGING }}

  deploy-production:
    environment: production
    needs: deploy-staging
    env:
      FIREFLIES_API_KEY_PROD: ${{ secrets.FIREFLIES_API_KEY_PROD }}
      FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET_PROD: ${{ secrets.FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET_PROD }}

GCP Secret Manager:

set -euo pipefail
# Store secrets
echo -n "your-prod-key" | gcloud secrets create fireflies-api-key-prod --data-file=-
echo -n "your-webhook-secret" | gcloud secrets create fireflies-webhook-secret-prod --data-file=-

# Grant access to Cloud Run service
gcloud secrets add-iam-policy-binding fireflies-api-key-prod \
  --member="serviceAccount:your-sa@project.iam.gserviceaccount.com" \
  --role="roles/secretmanager.secretAccessor"

Step 4: Startup Validation

import { z } from "zod";

const FirefliesConfigSchema = z.object({
  apiKey: z.string().min(10, "API key too short"),
  apiUrl: z.string().url(),
  webhookSecret: z.string().min(16, "Webhook secret must be 16+ chars"),
  timeout: z.number().positive(),
});

// Validate on startup -- fail fast
export function validateConfig() {
  const config = getFirefliesConfig();
  const result = FirefliesConfigSchema.safeParse(config);

  if (!result.success) {
    console.error("Fireflies config validation failed:");
    for (const issue of result.error.issues) {
      console.error(`  ${issue.path.join(".")}: ${issue.message}`);
    }
    process.exit(1);
  }

  console.log(`Fireflies config valid for ${detectEnvironment()}`);
}

Step 5: Per-Environment Webhook Registration

Each environment needs its own webhook URL registered in Fireflies:

• Dev: Use ngrok or similar for local testing
• Staging: https://staging.yourapp.com/api/webhooks/fireflies
• Production: https://yourapp.com/api/webhooks/fireflies

Register each in the corresponding Fireflies workspace at app.fireflies.ai/settings > Developer settings.

Error Handling

Output

• Environment-aware Fireflies configuration with type safety
• Secret management across local, CI, and cloud platforms
• Startup validation preventing misconfigured deployments
• Per-environment webhook URL strategy
