Hello everyone.
I need to get live transcription which zoom provides on UI.
I am using component view and API provided by it grants access to caption-message event
client.on('caption-message', (payload) => {
...
});
This event send nothing but at the same time i see transcription on UI.
Do someone know how to get this transcription using API or webhooks?
(I already have workaround with recall.ai bot and it works)
Hi @interview, happy to hear you tried Recall.ai!
It looks like you’re using the web transcription sdk and are listening for the caption-message event
Looking at the guide and before you can listen to captions, you must have a separate license to use this feature. If you do not have a license, you will receive an error
Once you have the license and the feature enabled, you must initialize it with the client.getLiveTranscriptionClient function
and then start the transcription like the following:
const liveTranscriptionTranslation = client.getLiveTranscriptionClient()
liveTranscriptionTranslation.startLiveTranscription().then(() => {
liveTranscriptionTranslation.setTranslationLanguage('ja')
liveTranscriptionTranslation.setSpeakingLanguage('ja')
})
Also don’t forget to disable it after you’re done with:
liveTranscriptionTranslation.disableCaptions()
With this, you should be able to listen to live meeting captions
