Call transcription converts recorded audio calls into written text.
Use this guide to learn how to enable and configure call transcription.
Note: Call transcription requires that call recording is enabled. For more information, see our Configure call recording as an administrator on the desktop app guide.
- Go to Settings.
- Select the Configuration icon.
- Click Transcribe.

- Click Edit.
- Select the plus icon.
- To edit the rule, click any field under the Condition column.

- Modify the following transcription rules as desired:
- Call Type — Which calls the rule applies to by direction or type.
- Call Length From/To — Minimum and maximum call duration parameters. Turn on From to skip very short calls, like hang-ups or wrong numbers. Turn on To to cap very long ones. With both set to no, the rule applies to calls of any length.
- Skills — Limits the rule to calls handled through specific skills.
- HashTags — Limits the rule to calls tagged with specific hashtags.
- Percent — The share of matching calls to transcribe. 100 means every matching call, indicated by Every label in the list. A lower number, like 20, samples a portion of calls, which is useful for QA spot-checks or keeping costs down.
- Model — Defines the transcription engine and language.
- Redaction — Optional masking of sensitive data in transcripts, such as card numbers or other personal details.
- Click Save.

Determine the desired rule order. Click Edit and move rules up or down using the arrows. Rules are checked top to bottom, and the first match takes effect. A Do Not Transcribe rule is commonly placed at the bottom as a catch-all. Click Save.
