@Vishnoi, Astha Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum, Thank you for posting your query here!

All the Video Indexer APIs are listed here: https://api-portal.videoindexer.ai/

You can retrieve the transcript of a video from the Azure AI Video Indexer programmatically using the Video Indexer API. Here are the steps:

1. Obtain an Access Token: You need to obtain an access token for your Video Indexer account. This can be done using the Authorization AP
2. Call the Get Video Index API: https://api-portal.videoindexer.ai/api-details#api=Operations&operation=Get-Video-Index
3. Extract the Transcript: The response from the above Get Video Index API will include a detailed breakdown of the video content, including the transcript.

For more information about samples, refer Azure Video Indexer code samples on GitHub.

Hope this helps. If you have any follow-up questions, please let me know. I would be happy to help.
