how to store recordings in s3

@Eeshita To store recordings in S3, you'll need to follow these general steps: 1. **Set up an AWS S3 Bucket**: If you haven't already, create an S3 bucket in your AWS account where you want to store the recordings. 2. **Configure Access**: Make sure you have the necessary permissions set up to write files to your S3 bucket. This typically involves configuring IAM roles and policies. 3. **Implement Upload Logic**: In your application, implement the logic to upload files to S3. This usually involves using the AWS SDK for your programming language of choice. You'll need to handle authentication with AWS, create a pre-signed URL or use the SDK methods to upload the file directly to your S3 bucket. 4. **Handle File Metadata**: Optionally, you can also add metadata to your recordings, such as timestamps, user IDs, or any other relevant information that should be stored with the file. 5. **Test the Upload**: Ensure that your upload process works correctly by testing it with different file sizes and types to make sure that recordings are being stored as expected. 6. **Secure the Data**: Make sure that the data is encrypted in transit and at rest. AWS S3 provides options for server-side encryption. 7. **Logging and Monitoring**: Set up logging and monitoring to keep track of uploads and access to the recordings for security and auditing purposes. If you need specific code examples or guidance on how to implement these steps using VAPI, please provide more details about your current setup or the programming language you are using, and I'll be happy to assist further!

when uploading the recording, is the actual audio being uploaded or the transcript and can you switch to it being a transcript stored if its audio? @Vapi

@cod When uploading a recording to a storage service like S3 through VAPI, typically it is the actual audio file that is being uploaded. However, if you want to store the transcript instead of the audio, you would need to transcribe the audio first and then upload the resulting text file to S3. To switch from storing audio to storing transcripts: 1. **Transcribe the Audio**: Use VAPI's transcription services to convert the audio recording into text. 2. **Save the Transcript**: Once you have the transcript, save it as a text file (.txt or another suitable format). 3. **Upload the Transcript**: Use the same upload logic that you would for an audio file, but instead, upload the text file containing the transcript to your S3 bucket. If you need assistance with the transcription process or modifying your current setup to store transcripts instead of audio files, please let me know, and I can provide more detailed instructions or code examples.
