Is there a way to translate a Zoom meeting, or webinar, without Host intervention?

So my Japanese is not fluent, but I have many different Zoom meeting in Japanese every day. I would like to be able to have the live Captions translated into English, or using AI to translate voice. Is anyone here aware of any solutions to this? The Zoom translated captions require the Host to enable them, so that is out - I can not convince a 100 managers to enable it. It should be something I do as a client, even if I have to pay.

 

Obviously I can use my phone, "Microsoft Translator" and have it translate live, but that isn't great in a headphone only situation. I can probably cook something up with a pseudo audio device and pipe into other software...

 

But it seems this would be one of the first things you would want with Zoom?

Hello, we work in Turkey and most of our meeting are in Turkish. We have new foreigner colleague. He needs to simultaneous translation of the meetings. When he manually opens translation to English, it really does not work. Subtitle of the Turkish version works well but it does not translate into English good. How can we solve this problem? Do we need to do something else or do you have any other suggestions to make him understand simultaneously?

Resolved! Can't find setting to allow transcripts

On this page https://zoom.us/user/meeting/transcript#/transcripts

 

there's only the information:

 

No transcripts
You are not allowing meeting hosts to retain and access meeting transcripts.
 
Where do I allow the host to retain and access transcripts?

Using the Outlook connector to schedule zoom meetings. When scheduling a meeting it keeps defaulting to Personal Meeting ID and I have to change it to Generate Automatically and if I forget it sends out my personal meeting id which I do not want to do. Is there a setting somewhere that will force new meetings to use the "Generate Automatically" option?

Suddenly the email links to meetings no longer work - I go to the zoom page but it stops there. If I go to the web page and put in the link, I go to a zoom sign in page but a pop up window saying I should allow the camera and mike comes up and locks the screen.

I cannot get into any of the Zoom meetings that are set up in my calendar.

 

My VA linked my calendar to Zoom.   I signed up my Zoom account with Google Sign in, and I'm signing in the same way on my computer/app.

 

When I click on the zoom link to start the meeting, it always says "Waiting for Host to Join" - but I am the host.

 

I just updated my app, but we can't find the solution here - what am I missing?

Hi,

I've really tried everything, but it's still not working. I did the following steps—could you please check if I missed anything?

  1. I’m using the Pro plan and I want to create a meeting via API where two other participants can join without me being present.
  2. To achieve this, I disabled the Waiting Room in my Account Settings.
  3. I understand that I must enable either a passcode, authentication, or a waiting room. So, I set up my API configuration as follows and wrote a Python function accordingly:

    def create_meeting(access_token, row😞

        headers = {
            'Authorization': f'Bearer {access_token}',
            'Content-Type': 'application/json'
        }

        start_time = row['meeting_date']
        start_time_iso = start_time.strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S")  # ISO 8601 format
        alternative_hosts = ",".join([row["email1"], row["email2"]])
        data = {
            "topic": f"{row['type']} with {row['nick1']} and {row['nick2']}",
            "default_password" : True,
            "password" : "123456",
            "type": 2,  # reserved meeting
            "start_time": start_time_iso,
            "duration": int(row['time']),  #by minutes
            "scheduled_for": row["user1_email"],
            "settings": {
                "join_before_host": True,
                "jbh_time" : 0,
                "mute_upon_entry": True,
                "waiting_room": False,
                "auto_recording": "cloud",  
                "recording_audio_transcription": True,
                "allow_multiple_devices":True,
                #"alternative_hosts" : alternative_hosts,
                #"alternative_hosts_email_notification" : True,
                "authentication_exception" : [
                    {
                        "email" : "***********",
                        "name" : "myname"
                    }
                ],
            },
            "calendar_type" : 2
        }
           
        response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=data)
        if response.status_code == 201:
            return response.json()  
        else:
            raise Exception(f"Failed to create meeting: {response.json()}")


    Anyone who can solve this??

Annotate blocking host bottom left screen view during screen share

Annotate icon was never present during my screen share meetings before.  Now that it is here, it is anchored in the bottom left and I cannot find a setting to disable it for the host(which is what I would like to do).  I host meetings where I display server logs, and all linux commands for navigating are typed at the bottom left of the screen - directly behind the annotate icon that now displays along with the green outline.  The green outline can be turned off, but annotate apparently not.  I can no longer see the text I am typing in the bottom left of a server log.   Why can I only disable annotate for attendees?  What if I don't want it at all?  Can I at least move it?
