Using the Lessonspace post-session transcripts

With the initial release of Lessonspace transcriptions (v1), you can generate a post-session transcription file for your sessions.

What is a Transcript?

A transcription is a text-based (JSON file) record of everything spoken during a session, capturing dialogue from all participants along with timestamps and user details. This provides a structured, permanent record of what was said and when which can be useful for record-keeping or integration with other systems.

Enabling and accessing Transcriptions

To enable transcriptions, follow the API documentation in this detailed guide.

Important note: To get access to transcriptions, make sure to toggle the setting on in your Organization Settings here: https://www.thelessonspace.com/settings/recording#transcription

FAQs

Why do I not have a transcript?

A transcript is only generated for sessions that last at least five minutes and include at least two distinct participants. If a session does not meet these requirements, no transcript will be generated, even if transcription was requested.

How long does it take for a transcript to become available?

Most transcripts are available within 15 minutes after a session ends. However, processing times can vary, and in some cases it may take up to 24 hours for a transcript to appear.

Why is my transcript taking longer than expected?

Our transcription service is optimized for cost efficiency rather than processing speed. As a result, processing may be delayed during periods of high demand at our transcription provider. Although this is uncommon, it can occasionally take longer (maximum 24 hours) for a transcript to become available.

How much do transcripts cost?

Access to transcripts, provided as a downloadable JSON file, is billed at $0.001 per participant minute of audio. Purchasing transcript access is not required to generate lesson summaries.
