Im trying to transcribe and translate a downloaded audio file and get that onto a googledoc.
For some reason it stopped working and nothing happens no error it says the scenario run was complete but nothing happens.
Can someone help with this?
It looks like your module doesn’t return any data. Please click on this “1” and attach screenshots here.
Meanwhile, it is likely that your module is looking for a file newer than the file stored, it could happen if you are testing scenario on the same file.
Try right-clicking on your 1st module and selecting the “Choose where to start” option and change it so your file will be visible.

Welcome to the Make community!
This is because the module is a POLLING trigger, and not an INSTANT (Webhook) trigger.
There are two main types of triggers, Polling (scheduled), and Instant (webhooks). Polling triggers can only run on a schedule. Instant triggers can be run as soon as data is received by the webhook.
Polling means Make checks external service for changes (pull changes to Make).
Webhook (instant) triggers means external service calls Make when there are new changes (push changes to Make).
The module you are using does not push changes — it’s basically a API request that Make has to occasionally “call” to fetch the latest changes/items.
To find out more on the different types of Trigger modules, see refer to Types of Modules and Webhooks sections of the Make help center.
So, if you ran the scenario and nothing was returned, this is called a “Check Run”. Try uploading a new file first, then run your scenario.

Thank you!!! That was the problem but now the translation is horrible its just the same sentence over and over again. Could the problem be in the transcription?
I don’t know what type of file you are passing. You should start by checking the input log for module No. 3 “Create Transcription”—it will show you the input data passed to OpenAI.
