You can enable or disable audio transcription for cloud recordings by going to the settings menu

It is possible to record audio of meetings and webinars into the cloud and then have the recording automatically transcribed. In the list of recorded meetings, the transcript appears as a separate VTT file once it has been processed. In addition to this, you also have the option of displaying the transcript text within the video itself, where it will appear just as it does within closed captions

As would be expected, the transcription is divided into sections. Each section is marked with a time stamp indicating the point in the recording where that section of the text was recorded. Various types of editing can be performed on the transcript so that the words can be captured more accurately, or to add capitalizations and punctuation that are not reflected in the transcript.

Prerequisites

• An Enterprise, Education, or Business license with cloud recording capability is also available
• Admins and Owners of accounts can enable or disable features at the account or group level as per their privileges
