Dyte <> Symbl.ai transcriptions

How to use?

Find the Dyte integration logic in your codebase which may look like this

// Somewhere in your codebase
const meeting = await DyteClient.init(...)

On top of the file where integration was found, import this package.

import {
    activateTranscriptions,
    deactivateTranscriptions,
    addTranscriptionsListerner,
    removeTranscriptionsListener
} from '@dytesdk/symbl-transcription';

Now you can activate Symbl transcriptions.

activateTranscriptions({
    meeting: meeting, // From DyteClient.init
    symblAccessToken: 'ACCESS_TOKEN_FROM_SYMBL_AI',
});

This would ensure that your audio gets translated and resultant transcriptions get sent to all participants including self being referred by meeting.self.

If you want to show transcriptions to a participant or for self, you can do so using the following snippet.

addTranscriptionsListerner({
    meeting: meeting,
    noOfTranscriptionsToCache: 200,
    transcriptionsCallback: (allFormattedTranscriptions) => { console.log(allFormattedTranscriptions); },
})

Using transcriptionsCallback you can populate the transcriptions in your app/website at any desired place.

NOTE: For every partial or complete sentence, transcriptionsCallback will be called, with all formatted transcriptions.

Once meeting is over, deactivate the transcription generation.

deactivateTranscriptions({
    meeting: meeting, // From DyteClient.init
    symblAccessToken: 'ACCESS_TOKEN_FROM_SYMBL_AI',
});

In similar fashion, remove the transcriptions listener, once the meeting is over.

removeTranscriptionsListener({meeting: meeting});
