AssemblyAI enables real-time transcription notifications via webhooks

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

AssemblyAI has introduced webhooks and callbacks for its transcription service, allowing developers to receive real-time notifications when audio processing is complete. This feature eliminates the need for constant polling of the API, instead enabling AssemblyAI to send a POST request to a specified endpoint upon job completion. The webhook payload is minimal, containing only the transcript ID and status, requiring developers to make a separate API call to retrieve the actual transcript text or error details. AI

IMPACT Streamlines audio processing workflows for developers by enabling real-time updates.
