Call Transcription | Zoho CRM

Call Transcription

Call Transcription is available only for users in the US, EU, IN, CA, and SA DCs.
Call transcription feature automatically transcribes your call audio recordings into plain text in the Call Activity module. This feature is supported by Google's speech recognition service.
Please ensure that using the call recording and transcription features do not violate your company's policy, or the laws of the country or countries whose laws your country is obliged to follow. If the call recording feature is not in use or is discontinued, the call transcription service will also be paused by default.


Pre-requisites
Call transcription is available for organizations with built-in telephony integration, vendor integration, or URLs connected via APIs. However, it is important to note that when integrating a new telephony provider, Zia will assess and determine if transcription is feasible for that particular vendor.

To enable call transcription in your organization, you need to have Call Recording enabled in your Telephony integration.
  1. Please note that when integrating a new telephony provider, Zia will assess and determine if transcription is feasible for that particular vendor.
