Hey everyone! I am trying to smoothly translate text to speech using google. Sometimes i get the correct response from my custom action and sometimes i dont. Im firstly converting prompts into a Chat GPT AI response then converting that text ( the AI response ) into Text-to-speech. but id say it only works maybe 40% of the time. The response im getting from the Google text-to-speech AI doesnt allow me to play any audio . Im out of ideas to try and figure what the issue is. Anyone help a guy out?
What kind of length are the texts? Could it be a timeout issue?
Hey, thanks for the reply! Audio would run for about 2 mins if completed
Do you have 2 custom actions, 1 for chatgpt and 1 for the google tts? If so, do you know if chatgpt is always working?
I have separate actions, so an action for chat GPT, then a screen ( kind of a place holder ) to display the text. Then an action on the screen to sent the text to TTS. My chat GPT always works fine
I didn’t use Google TTS, but is there a way to see incoming requests from the Google side? It might be worth using a free account on Xano to make the API call for testing purposes, and see if some of the requests are timing out, or if another error is being encountered.

Thanks theadaloguy
Sorry for the late reply dude, crazy day! I’m unsure, I’m new to using google TTS only started incorporating it into my app maybe last week. What is Xano?
Xano is a no code back end tool. You can also use something like postman to send requests. You need something where you can see the error codes
Ah got yah! So xano runs in the background to
Help run the app and will show you errors?
Some people use Xano as the back end instead of using Adalo database. In this case I’m just suggesting you test out your API calls there, so you can diagnose the issue better.
That sounds awesome, I’ll give it try! Thank you

Look into using Buildship. You can connect to buildship via custom actions. It’s much more extensive.
