When You Need More Than Webex Gives You
Local Webex MP4 files come without a transcript or chat. Uploading the file is the way to get the text.
Webex Free has no cloud recording and no recording transcripts; a local recording can still be transcribed here.
Export minutes as DOCX or PDF with names and timestamps, instead of sending colleagues a recording link.
