All Webex recordings will have an automatic transcript generated for them.
A Webex recording will only begin to process once the Meeting has concluded. Once the recording has finished processing and is viewable, the transcript generation process will begin. You should expect the transcript generation period be as long as twice the duration of the video. This means that if you have an hour-long recording, you should expect the transcript to finish generating 2 hours after the recording is viewable online.
