Hi there! 👋 I understand you're having issues with call recordings and transcripts in the Vapi UI. I can't access the specific details of the call IDs you've shared, but I can definitely help you troubleshoot these common issues with incomplete recordings and missing transcripts. ## Possible causes for incomplete call recordings: 1. **Configuration Issues**: Your
recordingEnabled
parameter might not be set to
true
or there could be issues with your S3 bucket permissions. According to [troubleshooting information](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1332377462805368923), you should also check if the
hipaaEnabled
setting is turned off, as enabling it would prevent storing logs, recordings, or transcriptions. 2. **Voice Activity Detection (VAD) Settings**: If the recording starts late or misses sections, it could be due to incorrectly calibrated VAD settings not capturing speech properly, as mentioned in [this source](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1316042862630146058). 3. **Call Duration Settings**: According to [documentation](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1334857584238399549), if your call exceeds the
maxDurationSeconds
setting (default is 240 seconds for some assistants), the recording might be truncated. ## Possible causes for missing transcripts in the UI: 1. **Transcription Configuration**: Make sure
transcriptPlan.enabled
is set to
true
in your artifactPlan configuration as noted in [this source](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1342498699615539222).
2. **Transcriber Issues**: There might be problems with the transcription service. Some users have resolved similar issues by changing the transcriber from Deepgram to another provider as mentioned in [troubleshooting documentation](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1334024569861963788). 3. **UI Bugs**: There could be bugs in the Vapi UI preventing transcripts from displaying correctly according to [user reports](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1333635707721220116). ## Troubleshooting steps: 1. **Check basic recording configurations**: - Ensure that
recordingEnabled
is set to
true
- Verify that
hipaaEnabled
is turned off - Check S3 bucket permissions 2. **Review transcription settings**: - Confirm that
transcriptPlan.enabled
is set to
true
- Consider trying a different transcription provider 3. **Try accessing via API**: - Use the GET /call/:id endpoint to retrieve the full transcript and recording URLs:
Copy code
curl -X GET 'https://api.vapi.ai/call/{callId}' \
   -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
4. Check for error messages in your system logs related to recording or uploading. 5. Review Voice Activity Detection settings to ensure they're correctly configured to capture speech as soon as it starts. Is there anything specific about your setup that might help me provide more targeted troubleshooting advice?

this was a 3 mins conversation and there is no transcription and the audio is of 25s ff51fbab-fdb0-4c61-aeb4-ba9650ac35fb https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1356344654102003742/1356350666293121094/image.png?ex=67ec3f7e&is=67eaedfe&hm=798bc2d5914814a8b9809f8b7bbbc650c6a03fcc63f8dba78cac5eee4fce54d8&
@Vapi Incident can you help wme with this please?

Hey ClaraThays, Okay, I'm attaching a screenshot below. This describes that for some of the calls there is no transcript, and for some there is. The reason behind the calls not having the transcript is because of drift detected from the telephony side, which results in mixing up the audios and eventually we are unable to get the audio and the transcript. For confirmation, you can even check with your telephony provider regarding this. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1356344654102003742/1356675494497620158/Screenshot_2025-04-01_at_10.32.02_PM.png?ex=67ed6e03&is=67ec1c83&hm=92c679f27596876ddc3988bf9eb2de919891788fce3289117883a6bf2845fab7&

I tested again, and could it depend the region? I am using an phone number from ecuador and the transcript and recoridng is not working, and the quality is much worse, but when I try it with argentinan numbers it works perfectly?

Hi, checking if this is resolved/solved for you?

not resolved

Yes Clara, it is 100% possible because of the region. It has been observed previously as well that Twilio or a few of Twilio regions have bad quality, resulting in audio mixing up and eventually leading to transcription issues or the transcription being missed, which you have received. I would suggest you reach out to the Twilio team and ask them what's going on and what can be done from their side to fix this issue. Let me know how it goes for you.

perfect thank you!
