Hi I'm using Deepgram Nova 2 for doing transcriptions. I used to receive the
transcript
message on the client for both the assistant and user. I had build my application around. Now, I am not receiving the
transcript
message with the assistant
role
which has caused a disruption in my application! However, I am seeing the transcript for both user and assistant in the call log. This is causing a lot of issues for me. Pls let me know how this can be fixed. My assistant id is dda0b39a-c5ab-4578-8b3b-9f9e224be8c1

To restore assistant transcript messages to your client, ensure your assistant's
clientMessages
configuration includes
"transcript"
.
You can update your assistant using the API like this:
Copy code
json
{
  "clientMessages": [
    "conversation-update",
    "function-call",
    "hang",
    "model-output",
    "speech-update",
    "status-update",
    "transfer-update",
    "transcript",
    "tool-calls",
    "user-interrupted",
    "voice-input",
    "workflow.node.started"
  ]
}
Send this payload to the PATCH
/assistant/:id
endpoint for your assistant. If the issue persists after updating, please contact Vapi support for further help.

I've already done that
v
Since you've already set
"transcript"
in your
clientMessages
and still aren't receiving assistant transcript messages on the client, please contact Vapi support directly with your assistant ID and a description of the issue. Include that transcripts appear in the call log but not in the client event stream. This will help the support team investigate any backend or platform-specific issues affecting your assistant. Example message to support:
Copy code
Assistant ID: dda0b39a-c5ab-4578-8b3b-9f9e224be8c1
Issue: Not receiving assistant transcript messages on the client, despite correct clientMessages config and transcripts visible in call logs.
