Chunked flow - Recnote API

Use this when you record in segments and want to push audio as it arrives, rather than waiting for the full file. The server accumulates the transcript per session; you generate the note when the consultation ends.

1. Open a session

curl -X POST https://api.recnote.ai/api/v1/sessions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RECNOTE_API_KEY"

{ "sessionId": "3fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6" }

2. Push chunks

Send each audio chunk as it becomes available. Order is preserved.

curl -X POST https://api.recnote.ai/api/v1/sessions/$SID/chunks \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RECNOTE_API_KEY" \
  -F "file=@chunk-001.webm" \
  -F "language=sv"

{ "ok": true, "chunkTranscript": "..." }

Repeat for every chunk. Each chunk’s text is appended to the session’s running transcript.

3. Generate the note

When recording is finished, generate from the accumulated audio:

curl -X POST https://api.recnote.ai/api/v1/sessions/$SID/notes \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RECNOTE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "language": "sv" }'

{
  "transcript": "...full accumulated transcript...",
  "note": { "cause": "...", "subjective": "...", "...": "..." }
}

Generating consumes the session’s accumulated audio. Open a new session for the next consultation.

Chunking tips

Cut chunks at natural pauses (silence ≥ 500 ms) where possible — splitting mid-word can cause the two halves to transcribe separately.
Any of wav, mp3, m4a, ogg, webm works per chunk.
