Zoom AI Services Scribe
Background reference for Zoom AI Services Scribe across:
-
synchronous single-file transcription (
POST /aiservices/scribe/transcribe) -
asynchronous batch jobs (
/aiservices/scribe/jobs*) -
browser microphone pseudo-streaming via repeated short file uploads
-
webhook-driven batch status updates
-
Build-platform JWT generation and credential handling
Official docs:
-
https://developers.zoom.us/api-hub/ai-services/methods/endpoints.json
-
Quickstart sample: https://github.com/zoom/scribe-quickstart/
Routing Guardrail
-
If the user needs uploaded or stored media transcribed into text, route here first.
-
If the user needs live meeting media without file-based upload/batch jobs, route to ../rtms/SKILL.md.
-
If the user needs Zoom REST API inventory for AI Services paths, chain ../rest-api/SKILL.md.
-
If the user needs webhook signature patterns or generic HMAC receiver hardening, optionally chain ../webhooks/SKILL.md.
Quick Links
Core Workflow
-
Get Build-platform credentials and generate an HS256 JWT.
-
Choose fast mode for one short file or batch mode for stored archives / large sets.
-
Submit the transcription request.
-
For batch jobs, poll job/file status or receive webhook notifications.
-
Persist and post-process transcript JSON.
Hosted Fast-Mode Guardrail
-
The formal fast-mode API limits are
100 MBand2 hours, but hosted browser flows can still time out before the upstream response returns. -
Current deployed-sample observations:
-
~17.2 MB MP4 completed in about
26s -
~38.6 MB MP4 completed in about
26-37s -
~59.2 MB MP4 completed in about
32-34son the backend -
some ~59.2 MB browser requests still surfaced as frontend
504while backend logs later showed200 -
Treat frontend
504plus backend200as a browser/edge timeout race, not an automatic transcription failure. -
For hosted UIs, prefer an async request/polling wrapper for fast mode instead of holding the browser open for the full upstream response.
-
For larger or less predictable media, prefer batch mode even when the file is still within the formal fast-mode size limit.
Browser Microphone Pattern
-
scribedoes not expose a documented real-time streaming API surface. -
If you want a browser microphone experience, use pseudo-streaming:
-
capture microphone audio in short chunks
-
upload each chunk through the async fast-mode wrapper
-
poll for completion
-
append chunk transcripts in sequence
-
Recommended starting cadence:
-
chunk size:
5 seconds -
acceptable range:
5-10 seconds -
in-flight chunk requests:
2-3 -
This is a practical UI pattern for incremental transcript updates, not a substitute for
rtms. -
Treat this as a fallback demo pattern, not the preferred production architecture.
-
It adds repeated upload overhead, chunk-boundary drift, browser codec/container variability, and transcript stitching complexity.
-
If the user asks for actual live stream ingestion, low-latency continuous media, or server-push media transport, route to ../rtms/SKILL.md instead.
Endpoint Surface
Mode Method Path Use
Fast POST /aiservices/scribe/transcribe Synchronous transcription for one file
Batch POST /aiservices/scribe/jobs Submit asynchronous batch job
Batch GET /aiservices/scribe/jobs List jobs
Batch GET /aiservices/scribe/jobs/{jobId} Inspect job summary/state
Batch DELETE /aiservices/scribe/jobs/{jobId} Cancel queued/processing job
Batch GET /aiservices/scribe/jobs/{jobId}/files Inspect per-file results
High-Level Scenarios
-
On-demand clip transcription after a user uploads one recording.
-
Batch transcription of stored S3 call archives.
-
Webhook-driven ETL pipeline that writes transcripts to your database/search index.
-
Re-transcription of Zoom-managed recordings after exporting them to your own storage.
-
Offline compliance or QA workflows that need timestamps, channel separation, and speaker hints.
Chaining
-
Stored Zoom recordings -> ../rest-api/SKILL.md +
scribe -
Webhook verification hardening -> ../webhooks/SKILL.md
-
Real-time live transcript/media -> ../rtms/SKILL.md
-
Cross-product routing -> ../general/SKILL.md
