About Zoom Scraper | 🎥Downloader & 📄 Transcript

Need to pull down a Zoom recording for your team, or grab the transcript from that killer webinar you just watched? This actor does the heavy lifting for you. It's basically a script that logs into your Zoom account, finds the recordings you specify, and downloads them along with any available transcripts and metadata. You get the actual video files (in whatever formats Zoom offers), plus VTT or TXT transcripts, and details like the meeting topic, participants, and dates. I've used it to archive training sessions for new hires, help our legal team with compliance record-keeping, and even repurpose clips from all-hands meetings for social media snippets. Instead of manually screen recording or begging people for files, you set the parameters—like a date range or specific meeting IDs—and let it run. It handles the login, navigation, and downloading, so you end up with a tidy, organized archive. Super handy for anyone in education needing to preserve lectures, businesses managing records, or content creators looking to efficiently mine their video calls for material.
