Starting a Transcription

Starting a Transcription of a MeetBit Rooms Recording

If your workspace has automatic transcription of MeetBit Rooms enabled, recordings are automatically queued for transcription as soon as they're finished processing. No additional user action is needed and the Room owner will receive a notification once transcription is finished and is ready for review.

There are two ways to start a transcription of a MeetBit Rooms Recording. You may either:

1. Start the Transcription from a MeetBit Room's Recording Page

2. Create the Transcript with a MeetBit Room Source and then start the transcription manually

Both methods require that you have the permission to create Transcripts, update Transcripts, read the Conference Room and read the Conference Room Recording.

The Transcript will then be created and queued for transcription. You will receive an email notification once the process is completed and the Transcript is ready for review.

You must have the permission to create and update Transcripts to perform the actions below.

1. Visit the Create Transcript page at https://customdomain.com/admin/transcripts/create.

Before proceeding to the next step, we recommend that you specify the speakers of the media source by following the instructions here: Specifying Transcript Participants

Whilst MeetBit can extrapolate the speaker's names and roles using the conversation content, we recommend you specify speakers yourself for more accurate speaker labeling.
