    Hello @ARS2!

    Welcome to the Zoom Community! We're glad to have you here.

    Yes, it is possible to save meeting transcripts from Zoom calls. Here are the key ways to do this:

     

    During the Meeting

    • Live transcript viewing and saving: You can view live transcripts in the spoken language during the meeting, and these transcripts can be saved or downloaded. The live transcript is available to all invited participants (both internal and external), and you can view it from mobile clients as well. Anyone can start or stop the transcription process.

    Through Cloud Recording

    • Automatic transcript generation: When you record a meeting to the cloud, Zoom's AiSense servers can optionally transcribe the meeting and create a transcript file (.vtt format). This transcript is generated as part of the cloud recording workflow and becomes available along with other meeting artifacts like audio (.m4a) and video (.mp4) files.

    For AI Companion Feature

    • Retained transcripts for post-meeting use: To access transcripts after meetings for features like post-meeting questions or AI Companion, you must enable the "Allow meeting hosts to retain and access meeting transcripts" setting. This allows the transcript generated by AI Companion features to be retained and used by the host and meeting participants in tools like Zoom Docs and AI Companion 2.0.

    Note that hosts can manually delete retained transcripts if needed, and if you're still in a meeting, the host can turn off AI Companion and delete the transcript assets.

    Hi, Mark, Thank you for the response much appreciate it. My situation aligns with < during the meeting> scenario.

    While I am able to  view  live transcripts during the meeting, I am unable to see a save or download option . The window closes when the host ends the meeting.  Could  it be that some specific setting is required to be activated ?   am much obliged for advise on this matter. thanks !
