What do I need to configure OpenAI Whisper for WhatsApp voice message transcription?

To configure OpenAI Whisper for WhatsApp voice message transcription, you need an OpenAI API key, Whisper model configuration settings, and a project config file like .transcription.config.json. You must also install the OpenAI dependency before integration.

Can my chatbot still respond if WhatsApp voice note transcription fails?

If WhatsApp voice note transcription fails, the transcription module includes a fallback mechanism to handle the error gracefully. This robust error handling ensures your chatbot can continue processing the conversation despite the transcription failure.

How are transcribed voice notes stored for context-aware chatbot reasoning?
