Overview

The deleteTranscript mutation is designed to delete a specific transcript by its ID.

Permissions: Users can delete meetings they own. Deleting another team member’s meeting requires team admin privileges.

Rate Limit: This mutation is rate-limited to 10 requests per minute across all user tiers. If you exceed this limit, you will receive a too_many_requests error with a retryAfter timestamp indicating when you can make requests again.

Arguments

String

required

Transcript ID

Usage Example

To delete a transcript, provide the unique id of the transcript as an argument to the mutation. The returned subfields will be from the deleted transcript. Here’s an example of how this mutation could be used:

mutation deleteTranscript($id: String!) {
  deleteTranscript(id: $id) {
    id
    title
    host_email
    organizer_email
    fireflies_users
    participants
    date
    transcript_url
    audio_url
    duration
  }
}

  -d '{"query": "mutation($transcriptId: String!) { deleteTranscript(id: $transcriptId) { title date duration organizer_email } }", "variables": {"transcriptId": "your_transcript_id"}}' \
