How can I check if my Microsoft 365 subscription has the option to transcribe meeting notes during my Teams Meeting?

To check if your Microsoft 365 subscription has the option to transcribe meeting notes during your Teams Meeting, you can follow these steps:

1. Verify Subscription Type: Ensure that you have a subscription that includes transcription features. Not all Microsoft 365 subscriptions have the capability to record and transcribe meetings automatically.
2. Check Meeting Policy: As an admin, you can manage transcription settings in the Teams admin center. If you are not the admin, you may need to contact your IT department to verify if transcription is enabled for your account.
3. Meeting Options: During a Teams Meeting, you should see options for recording and live captions. If you do not see the option to start transcription, it may be due to your account's permissions or the meeting policy settings.
4. Licensing Requirements: Ensure that you have the necessary licenses, such as Teams Premium or Microsoft 365 Copilot, which may be required for certain transcription features.
5. Contact Support: If you still cannot find the option, consider reaching out to Microsoft support for assistance in determining your subscription capabilities and settings.

Once transcription is enabled, you can start the transcription during the meeting, and it will be available after the meeting ends. However, automatic emailing of transcripts may not be a built-in feature and might require additional steps to access the transcript after the meeting.

This feature is only available for business licenses of Microsoft 365.
