Automatically Save Closed Caption Transcript

The Auto-Generated Closed captions are a very useful tool on meetings, and I know that we have the ability to save the transcripts. I would like to see an option to automatically save the transcript of meetings, differentiated based on whether I am a participant or host. Or at least a prompt. As it currently stands if I forget to save the transcript before I leave a meeting there is no way to recover it.

    I agree.  I forget as well. Other platforms do this.  I hope this can be set to automatically save.

    This just happened to me moments ago! Highly frustrating. Even when I do remember, sometimes the host ends the meeting for everyone before I have a chance to act. An auto-save option is absolutely needed.

    You have to remember to start saving near the end and hope you get all that you want.

    I agree! this would be a very useful feature in ZOOM to save us time and brain space to remember to alwasy do this.

    Plus 1 this request. This would be a super helpful feature to for meeting participants to be able to turn on a zoom setting that auto-saves transcripts to a computer folder.

    I use transcripts to reference the action items, next steps from meetings and if I'm not the host, when the meeting ends, the transcripts disappear

    Auto-save transcript is a must. I am Deaf and take online classes and sometimes the meeting closes unexpectedly before I have a chance to save it. I feel bad about not being able to recover the lost transcript.

    Add me to the list of +1 on this.  So easy to close the meeting and forget a final save.  So frustrating.

    I agree with everyone.  Auto-save of transcripts is a needed feature.

    Agreed.  Just lost a transcript because I forgot to manually save it before ending the meeting. Totally ridiculous that there is no option to auto-save transcripts.

    Agreed 1000x. I just don't have the capacity to stay 100% tuned in to a day full of meetings, so the transcripts are critical when there's dense subject matter.  PLEASE make this a feature.

    Another vote x 10000 for this.  When I get involved in a complex discussion is both when I most need the transcript and when I'm most likely to forget to go out and find and click the save button again.  And there are people who end meetings with not enough warning to go find the right window for that before they close it.
