Transcrip API
Read your transcripts from external apps — scripts, Zapier, Obsidian, your own tools. Read-only, scoped to the folders you choose to share. Available on the Plus plan.
1. Get an API key
- In the app, open Account → API access and accept the sharing terms.
- Share one or more folders. Only shared folders are ever readable through the API.
- Create a key. The secret (
tsk_…) is shown once — store it safely. Revoke it anytime.
Privacy note: sharing a folder uploads a readable copy of its transcripts for API delivery. Everything else stays in your zero-knowledge encrypted vault. Disabling API access deletes all keys and readable copies.
2. Authenticate
Send the key as a bearer token. Base URL: https://api.transcrip.app/ext/v1
curl https://api.transcrip.app/ext/v1/me \
-H "Authorization: Bearer tsk_YOUR_KEY"3. Endpoints
