As a Teams Premium user, you now have the option to translate meeting transcripts into a language different from the original language spoken during the meeting. You can currently choose from over 30 supported languages. The transcript can be displayed in the meeting side panel, helping you make your meetings more productive and inclusive.
How it works:
1. Go to the Meeting while in a Teams meeting.
2. Select "More (...) > Save and Transcribe > Start transcription."
3. When the transcription appears on the right side of the meeting pane, select "Settings > Transcript > Transcript language" and choose the language in which you want to transcribe your meeting.
Note: By default, live transcriptions appear in the language selected as the Spoken language in the Transcript window, and meeting participants will see this language.
4. To see both the original language and the translation, open the "Show both original and translation" button.
Note: In the Teams Admin Center, administrators can enable or disable transcription settings in a meeting policy under "Meetings > Meeting policies." The default setting for this feature is "Off."
Availability:
To use this feature, users must be members of Teams Public Preview or have a Microsoft 365 Targeted Release, possess a Teams Premium license, and use the Teams client on Windows, macOS, or web (Edge, Chrome). Other meeting participants do not need to be members of Teams Public Preview. IT administrators must configure an update policy enabling the "Show preview features" feature to enable your Teams client for Public Preview. You can learn how to do this from the General Preview section in Microsoft Teams.
