Zype’s Upload API now supports automatic AI transcription and subtitle generation for newly uploaded videos. When enabled, this feature will generate subtitle files in both SRT and WebVTT formats after upload, making your content more accessible and easier to engage with.
What It Does
When you pass the upload[transcriptions_enabled]=true
parameter in your Upload API request, Zype’s AI transcription engine is triggered after the video is uploaded. This results in:
-
An AI-generated transcription of the video.
-
Automatically created SRT and WebVTT subtitle files.
These subtitle files will appear in the Zype CMS under the video’s Subtitles tab once the transcription is complete.
Note: Subtitle files are not activated by default. You can manually activate them in the CMS, or enable automatic activation via Site Settings if desired.
How to Use the Upload API
