Transcript of the Teams meeting

Question

How do I get a transcript of the Teams meeting that was recorded?

Answer 1

Dear @Gerald, Rex

If your Teams meeting was recorded and you are the meeting organizer, you can access the transcript as long as transcription was enabled during the meeting. Here are some places you can find the transcript after the meeting. For more information: Record and transcribe calls in Microsoft Teams

Option 1: Find the meeting conversation.

Scroll to the bottom and you should see a recap section with a link to the transcript. This works well for recent meetings but can be harder to find if the meeting was a while ago.

Option 2: You can open Microsoft Teams and go to the Chat tab. Locate the chat for that specific meeting, then look for the Recap or View recap option. Inside the recap, you should see a Transcript section where you can read or download the transcript. For reference: Start, stop, and download live transcripts in Microsoft Teams meetings

You can choose your format: .docx for a Word document or .vtt for a timed caption file.

Note:

- The .docx format is the most useful for most people. It includes timestamps and speaker names alongside the text, formatted as a readable document.

- The .vtt format is better if you need to use the transcript with video editing software or caption tools.

Option 3: The more reliable place to find it is through the Teams calendar.

• Open Calendar in Teams > Click on the meeting event > Look for the Recap tab at the top of the meeting details panel.
• Or you can check in the meeting chat > Open Calendar in Teams > Click on the meeting event > Look for "Chat" in the top-right.

If the meeting was a recurring one, make sure you are clicking on the specific occurrence that happened, not just the recurring event template.

Option 4: You can also find transcripts through OneDrive. Open OneDrive for Business

Navigate to the Recordings folder and look for the meeting. The transcript file will be stored there alongside the recording if one was made.
