Fireflies.ai Deploy Integration

Overview

Deploy Fireflies.ai integrations across platforms. Covers GraphQL client setup, webhook receiver deployment, and secret management for Vercel, Docker, and Google Cloud Run.

Prerequisites

• Fireflies.ai Business+ plan for API access
• FIREFLIES_API_KEY and FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET ready
• Platform CLI installed (vercel, docker, or gcloud)

Instructions

Step 1: Shared GraphQL Client

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

export async function firefliesQuery(query: string, variables?: 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;
}

Step 2: Webhook Receiver (Next.js / Vercel)

// app/api/webhooks/fireflies/route.ts
import crypto from "crypto";

export async function POST(req: Request) {
  const rawBody = await req.text();
  const signature = req.headers.get("x-hub-signature") || "";

  // Verify HMAC-SHA256 signature
  const expected = crypto
    .createHmac("sha256", process.env.FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET!)
    .update(rawBody)
    .digest("hex");

  if (!crypto.timingSafeEqual(Buffer.from(signature), Buffer.from(expected))) {
    return Response.json({ error: "Invalid signature" }, { status: 401 });
  }

  const event = JSON.parse(rawBody);

  if (event.eventType === "Transcription completed") {
    // Fetch transcript data
    const data = await firefliesQuery(`
      query($id: String!) {
        transcript(id: $id) {
          id title duration
          speakers { name }
          summary { overview action_items }
        }
      }
    `, { id: event.meetingId });

    // Process transcript (store, notify, create tasks)
    console.log(`Processed: ${data.transcript.title}`);
  }

  return Response.json({ received: true });
}

Step 3: Deploy to Vercel

set -euo pipefail
# Add secrets
vercel env add FIREFLIES_API_KEY production
vercel env add FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET production

# Deploy
vercel --prod

# Register webhook URL in Fireflies dashboard:
# https://your-app.vercel.app/api/webhooks/fireflies

Step 4: Deploy with Docker

FROM node:20-slim
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci --only=production
COPY . .
RUN npm run build
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["node", "dist/index.js"]

# docker-compose.yml
services:
  fireflies-app:
    build: .
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"
    environment:
      - FIREFLIES_API_KEY=${FIREFLIES_API_KEY}
      - FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET=${FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET}
    restart: unless-stopped

set -euo pipefail
docker compose up -d
# Verify
curl -f http://localhost:3000/api/health | jq .

Step 5: Deploy to Google Cloud Run

set -euo pipefail
# Build and push
gcloud builds submit --tag gcr.io/$PROJECT_ID/fireflies-app

# Deploy
gcloud run deploy fireflies-app \
  --image gcr.io/$PROJECT_ID/fireflies-app \
  --platform managed \
  --allow-unauthenticated \
  --set-env-vars "FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET=${FIREFLIES_WEBHOOK_SECRET}" \
  --set-secrets "FIREFLIES_API_KEY=fireflies-api-key:latest"

# Get URL for webhook registration
gcloud run services describe fireflies-app --format='value(status.url)'

Step 6: Health Check Endpoint

// app/api/health/route.ts (or /health endpoint)
export async function GET() {
  try {
    const start = Date.now();
    const data = await firefliesQuery("{ user { email } }");
    return Response.json({
      status: "healthy",
      fireflies: {
        connected: true,
        user: data.user.email,
        latencyMs: Date.now() - start,
      },
    });
  } catch (err) {
    return Response.json({
      status: "degraded",
      fireflies: { connected: false, error: (err as Error).message },
    }, { status: 503 });
  }
}

Post-Deploy: Register Webhook

After deploying, register your webhook URL:

1. Go to app.fireflies.ai/settings > Developer settings
2. Enter your webhook URL (e.g., https://your-app.vercel.app/api/webhooks/fireflies)
3. Save the webhook secret

Or test via API:

set -euo pipefail
# Test API connectivity from deployed app
curl -f https://your-app.vercel.app/api/health | jq .

Error Handling

Output

• Deployed webhook receiver with HMAC signature verification
• GraphQL client configured with platform-specific secrets
• Health check endpoint monitoring Fireflies connectivity
• Platform-specific deployment verified
