Overview
The node interacts with an AI-powered podcast-style audio generation service. Specifically, the Get Audio operation retrieves detailed information about a specific audio file using its unique identifier. This is useful when you want to fetch metadata or status details of an already generated audio file.
Common scenarios include:
- Retrieving audio file details after generation to check its availability or metadata.
- Integrating with workflows that need to process or distribute generated audio files based on their status or properties.
- Auditing or logging audio generation results by fetching detailed info.
Example: After generating a podcast episode audio, use this operation to get the audio's URL, duration, or other metadata for further processing or publishing.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Audio ID | The unique identifier of the audio file you want to retrieve details for. |
Output
The output contains a JSON object representing the detailed information of the requested audio file. This typically includes metadata such as audio URLs, status, duration, voice used, language, and possibly other generation parameters or results returned by the external API.
If the node supports binary data (not explicitly shown here), it would represent the actual audio content or related files, but in this operation, the focus is on metadata retrieval.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for the external Podfeed service.
- The node makes authenticated HTTP GET requests to the Podfeed API endpoint
/api/audios/{audioId}to fetch audio details. - Proper configuration of the API base URL and authentication credentials within n8n is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Error: "Audio not found" or similar — Ensure the provided Audio ID is correct and corresponds to an existing audio file in the Podfeed system.
- Authentication errors — Verify that the API key credential is valid and has the necessary permissions.
- Network or timeout issues — Check network connectivity and API service status.
- If the node throws errors related to mixing voices or invalid parameters, those pertain to other operations and do not affect this one.
