Microsoft Teams: View, download, and delete Microsoft OneDrive for Business transcript files

Originally posted by Microsoft Mar 7, 2024 Uncategorized 0 Comments

Microsoft Teams will save meeting transcript files in OneDrive for Business for transcription-only meetings. Users can view, download, and delete transcript files from one place instead of two. The feature will roll out in April 2024 and will affect organizations that use transcription. No action is needed to prepare for this change.

With this new feature, Microsoft Teams meeting transcript files will be saved in Microsoft OneDrive for Business for transcription-only meetings. Users will be able to view, download, and delete transcript files from one place (OneDrive for Business) instead of two places (OneDrive for Business and Microsoft Exchange Online).

When this will happen:

Targeted release: We will begin rolling out early April 2024 and expect to complete by mid-April 2024.

Worldwide, GCC, GCC High, and DoD: We will begin rolling out mid-April 2024 and expect to complete by late April 2024.

How this will affect your organization:

Currently, if the admin turns on transcription for the organization, you can view, download, and delete transcript files saved on both OneDrive for Business and Exchange Online directly from the tile “Transcript” in the Microsoft Teams meeting chat or in the Recap tab in the Teams calendar invite. 

With this new feature, we will stop saving transcript files on Exchange Online. We will communicate this change here when it is set to begin.

What you need to do to prepare: 

There is no action needed to prepare for this change. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.
