Hi @prashant.kumar,

This is happening because you’re calling the transcript using the Zoom Meeting ID instead of the meeting UUID. Other developers have run into similar issues and have solved them by switching to using the meeting UUID, you can see an example [here](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/getting-meeting-transcript-info-works-with-uuid-but-not-with-meeting-id/138985/6).

From the example I linked above, it looks like the Zoom team is planning to add support for querying by meeting ID in the future, but for now I’d suggest using meeting UUID.
