Retrieval action to “Select All” blocks in a project
in progress
chrisdewar
It would be helpful to have a quick option to select all blocks in a project. Use case: I have an automation set up that transcribes every YouTube video that our channel puts out, and places the transcription in a new project. However, phrase line of a transcription is interred into a separate block in the project (roughly analogous to the line breaks in a standard transcription that align with timestamps). I don’t have the ability to adjust the prompt for the transcription automation, so I can’t simply ask it to return all text in one block, and running additional AI actions on the transcription would generally require selecting all of it.

We are working on this, thank you.

Hi Chris, could you please elaborate more on why running additional AI actions would require selecting all blocks of the project created? I do see this being useful for some use cases where the content is already present in a project and further automations want to use it, but for your described use case:
A way to format the transcription to return all text in one block can be done with an Ask Agent or Ask AI action by passing the content of the transcription step like such.
Do let me know if i misunderstood you.

ryantaskade Ryan, you are a genius, and I am dumb! That should work perfectly. The only other use case I would have specifically are running commands like “prioritize all tasks within this project,” but most of projects are not nearly as extensive as the transcriptions are.

chrisdewar: Hi Chris, glad to hear that it helped! I'll be leaving this post open as i do agree that a retrieval action can help to fulfil some use cases or provide alternative ways to satisfy your use case as well.
