Q & A

What is the purpose of using the No Code Architects toolkit API with Make.com?

The purpose is to automate tasks such as converting media to MP3, transcribing media, and combining videos in a cost-effective way, using custom API functions tailored for AI automations.

How do you create a new connection in Make.com to use the No Code Architects toolkit API?

To create a new connection in Make.com, you need to enter the X API key and the toolkit's specific URL (from the server you deployed in the Google console) to establish the connection. This can then be used in modules without needing to use an HTTP module.

What is the significance of using webhooks in the No Code Architects toolkit?

Webhooks allow you to handle long-running processes (like video transcription or combining videos) by sending a notification when the process is finished. This avoids waiting for processes to complete in real-time, improving efficiency in automation.

Why is it beneficial to track API requests in Airtable?

Tracking API requests in Airtable allows you to monitor the progress of each request, manage responses, and automate follow-up actions based on the results. It serves as a central place for managing data like the request ID, endpoint, and response.

How does the No Code Architects toolkit help in reducing costs for AI automations?

The toolkit focuses on isolating the most useful API functions that are commonly needed, allowing users to launch their own servers and access these functions at a lower cost, compared to relying on large-scale, expensive APIs.

What is the advantage of using Make.com modules with the No Code Architects toolkit over manually using HTTP modules?

Using Make.com modules with the No Code Architects toolkit simplifies the process by integrating the toolkit directly into Make.com, allowing for easy handling of media URLs and API requests without manually managing HTTP requests and responses.

How does combining multiple videos work in the No Code Architects toolkit?

To combine videos, you simply input the video URLs into the relevant module in Make.com. The toolkit processes these URLs and merges the videos into one file, with the process status being tracked and notified through webhooks.

Can the No Code Architects toolkit handle large video files or media processing tasks efficiently?

Yes, the toolkit can handle large video files and media processing tasks, but depending on the size of the files and the server's resources, the processing time may vary. Webhooks are used to notify when the processing is complete.

What should you do if the No Code Architects toolkit's processing time is too long?

If the processing time is too long, you can use webhooks to receive updates asynchronously once the process completes, instead of waiting for the task to finish in real-time.

How can you get early access to the No Code Architects toolkit and support for using it in your automations?

To get early access to the toolkit and receive support for setting up automations, you can join the No Code Architects community, where the focus will be on helping members launch and use the toolkit effectively in their workflows.
