A meeting transcript provides a complete, AI-powered text record of what was discussed and decided during a meeting, powered by Cisco’s industry-leading speech-to-text engine. It enables developers and integrators to capture, analyze, and extend meeting intelligence programmatically.

A transcript snippet is a short segment of a transcript spoken by a specific participant. A meeting transcript is composed of multiple snippets representing the full conversation flow.

The Meeting Transcript APIs let you list meeting transcripts and list, get, or update transcript snippets. Transcripts can be retrieved through download links provided in the API response (vttDownloadLink or txtDownloadLink).

Refer to the Meetings API Scopes section of Meetings Overview for scopes required for each API.

NOTE:

1. Meeting transcripts are generated only when meeting recording is turned on. Since August 1, 2023, you must also enable Webex Assistant or Closed Captions for transcripts to be created.
2. Starting February 2024, transcripts are automatically generated when the Cisco AI Assistant for Webex is turned on during a meeting — even if meeting recording is not enabled. Transcript will be saved after meeting ends only if related settings and organizational policies allow. Transcripts generated by Cisco AI Assistant cannot be updated via API.
3. Listing, getting, or updating transcript snippets is not supported for Admin roles.
