## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

# README

**Wistia Transcript is a wistia transcript api that converts one public Wistia share or embed URL into detected-language text, ordered timestamped segments, source metadata, and an optional translation.** It returns one 22-field Dataset item for one successful input.

- **One input produces one transcript record.** A successful run writes one Dataset item rather than a page that still needs parsing.
- **The speech contract is timestamped.** `transcript` contains combined text plus ordered `start`, `end`, and `text` segments.
- **Translation is explicit.** The optional `translate` input offers 133 language choices and keeps the translated segments aligned with the original.
- **Measured on August 12, 2026.** The isolated candidate run completed in 17.323 seconds and wrote one Dataset item.

The smallest successful FREE-tier run has $0.397 in fixed events — one $0.387 Transcript plus one $0.01 Actor Start at the default 1 GB — followed by metered Actor usage.

### Why Choose Wistia Transcript

**Structured speech, not a document blob.** The result separates language, full text, and timestamped segments so a downstream system can quote, search, subtitle, or chunk it without reparsing a formatted file.

**One stable 22-field shape.** Source metadata and speech output use the same top-level names for this edition and the other transcript editions, which reduces branching in mixed workflows.

**Source-aware scope.** Convert public hosted presentations and product videos into transcript records for knowledge workflows. The accepted link shape is documented by [Wistia's official sharing guide](https://support.wistia.com/en/articles/8234473-share-your-wistia-videos).

**Optional translation with aligned time ranges.** Translation is produced after recognition and uses the same segment boundaries, preserving the point in the media that each translated line describes.

### Quick Start Guide

The prefilled example is a public URL that completed the one-result lifecycle check.

#### Step 1: Configure the media

Paste `https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal` into `video_url`. The schema requires `video_url`; this platform edition intentionally does not expose file upload.

#### Step 2: Choose a translation target

Leave `translate` empty for the detected-language transcript only, or select one of the 133 configured targets. Use `spanish` to reproduce the JSON scenario on this page.

#### Step 3: Start and collect

Start the Actor, wait for completion, and open the default Dataset. A successful result contains one row with `transcript`; `translation` is populated only when a target was requested and completed.

### Input Parameters

Wistia Transcript exposes 2 public inputs, and its URL/file requirement follows the exact rule described in the table.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `video_url` | `string` | Yes | One public media page URL in this Actor's documented scope. | `https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal` |
| `translate` | `string` | No | Optional target language; the schema exposes 133 choices. | `spanish` |

```json
{
  "video_url": "https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal",
  "translate": "spanish"
}
```

Do not send profiles, searches, feeds, playlists, private media, or credential-gated pages in place of the one public media item described by this edition.

### Output Data Schema

One successful run writes exactly 22 top-level fields; unavailable source metadata remains null instead of being invented.

| Group | Fields |
| --- | --- |
| Processing | `processor`, `processed_at`, `platform` |
| Source identity | `title`, `description`, `author`, `author_id`, `author_url`, `duration`, `published_at`, `thumbnail` |
| Audio and taxonomy | `audio_title`, `audio_artist`, `categories`, `tags` |
| Engagement | `view_count`, `like_count`, `shares_count`, `dislike_count`, `comment_count` |
| Speech | `transcript`, `translation` |

The following item is abbreviated. The real row retains all 22 top-level fields and every recognized segment.

```json
{
  "platform": "Wistia",
  "title": "Source title when available",
  "author": "Source creator when available",
  "duration": 24.4,
  "transcript": {
    "language": "English",
    "text": "Abbreviated recognized speech.",
    "segments": [
      {
        "start": "00:00:00.000",
        "end": "00:00:02.400",
        "text": "Abbreviated recognized speech."
      }
    ]
  },
  "translation": {
    "language": "Spanish",
    "text": "Traducción abreviada.",
    "segments": [
      {
        "start": "00:00:00.000",
        "end": "00:00:02.400",
        "text": "Traducción abreviada."
      }
    ]
  }
}
```

Dataset rows can be exported through Apify as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS; nested speech objects are most convenient in JSON.

### Integration Examples

Call `agentx/wistia-transcript` through the Apify REST API, clients, webhooks, schedules, or MCP with the same input object.

#### Actor ID

The public Actor ID is:

```text
wmFkNzYsByloqJdi5
```

The name form `agentx/wistia-transcript` resolves to the same Actor and is easier to read in configuration.

#### HTTP

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/wmFkNzYsByloqJdi5/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN"   -H "Content-Type: application/json"   -d '{"video_url": "https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal", "translate": "spanish"}'
```

#### Python

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("agentx/wistia-transcript").call(run_input={"video_url": "https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal", "translate": "spanish"})
items = list(client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items())
```

#### JavaScript

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('agentx/wistia-transcript').call({"video_url": "https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal", "translate": "spanish"});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
```

For Make.com or n8n, use an HTTP POST action against Actor ID `wmFkNzYsByloqJdi5`, send the same JSON body, then read the default Dataset ID from the completed run. For MCP, follow the [official Apify MCP setup](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp) and expose `agentx/wistia-transcript` as an Actor tool.

### Pricing

On the FREE tier, one transcript costs $0.387, Actor Start costs $0.01 per GB with a one-event minimum, and the smallest 1 GB run has $0.397 in fixed events plus usage.

| Tier | Transcript | Translation | Actor Start | Actor usage |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| FREE | $0.387 | $0.15 | $0.01 per GB, minimum one event | $0.00001 per usage event |
| BRONZE | $0.3741 | $0.145 | $0.01 per GB, minimum one event | $0.00001 per usage event |
| SILVER | $0.3612 | $0.14 | $0.01 per GB, minimum one event | $0.00001 per usage event |
| GOLD | $0.3483 | $0.135 | $0.01 per GB, minimum one event | $0.00001 per usage event |
| PLATINUM | $0.3483 | $0.135 | $0.01 per GB, minimum one event | $0.00001 per usage event |
| DIAMOND | $0.3483 | $0.135 | $0.01 per GB, minimum one event | $0.00001 per usage event |

Translation adds $0.15 on the FREE tier only when requested and completed. At the 1 GB default, an original-language result has $0.397 in fixed events; the same result translated to Spanish has $0.547 in fixed events. Metered usage depends on runtime and resources. Prices can change, so confirm the [live pricing page](https://apify.com/agentx/wistia-transcript/pricing) before a production batch.

### Use Cases

**Searchable media review.** Search `transcript.text`, then use the matched segment's `start` time to revisit the exact moment.

**Knowledge ingestion.** Split `transcript.segments` into time-addressable chunks for retrieval systems while retaining `title`, `author`, and `processor` provenance.

**Multilingual review.** Request `translation`, compare aligned segment boundaries, and retain the original detected-language text beside it.

**Content operations.** Convert public hosted presentations and product videos into transcript records for knowledge workflows.

**Accessibility preparation.** Use ordered segments as a drafting aid for subtitles or review notes, with human verification for names, jargon, and noisy audio.

### Alternatives

**Manual playback and typing** is reasonable for a very short one-off clip, but it becomes difficult to repeat, timestamp, schedule, or export consistently.

**The source's own transcript or caption feature** is preferable when it already exposes the exact authorized text you need. This Actor is useful when the public media is known, the speech must be normalized into one Dataset shape, or optional translation is part of the workflow.

**A general file transcription service** fits media already stored locally. Choose the universal Video Transcript edition when an authorized upload is the real input; choose this platform edition when the public source URL and source metadata matter.

Choose something else for live capture, account login, private media, speaker diarization, optical character recognition, video search, or legal-rights determination.

### Limits and Troubleshooting

- **No Dataset row appears.** The source page may be private, deleted, region-restricted, silent, or no longer expose downloadable media. Recheck `https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal` in a normal browser and retry the unchanged smallest input.
- **Metadata is null.** A source may expose playable media without publishing every engagement or creator value. Treat null as unavailable, not as zero.
- **The transcript contains a mistaken name.** Speech recognition can mishear proper nouns, overlapping speakers, music, or noisy audio. Review the relevant timestamp against the source before quoting it.
- **Translation is empty.** Translation runs only after a transcript exists and is attached only when all translated segments complete. Retry the original-language input first, then add one target.
- **A long recording takes longer.** Media must be retrieved and speech duration drives recognition work. Use the shortest representative public item for integration testing.

For a reproducible defect, open an [Actor Issue](https://apify.com/agentx/wistia-transcript/issues) with the run ID, exact public URL, requested translation, and the first relevant log message.

### Trust and Reliability

The public contract is checkable: the input schema lists every accepted control, the Dataset schema names 22 top-level fields, and the pricing configuration names each billed event and tier.

The isolated scenario `https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal` completed in 17.323 seconds on August 12, 2026 and produced one Dataset item. That measurement demonstrates the example path, not a permanent speed guarantee for different media lengths or source conditions.

Apify provides run history, logs, Dataset storage, API access, schedules, webhooks, and secret handling around the Actor. Source-owned titles, counts, thumbnails, and availability can change between runs.

### Legal and Compliance

**Public or authorized media only.** Submit content you may access and process; this Actor does not provide credentials or bypass private visibility.

**Source terms still apply.** Wistia Transcript is not affiliated with Wistia, and [Wistia's official sharing guide](https://support.wistia.com/en/articles/8234473-share-your-wistia-videos) remains the source for its own sharing or media rules.

**Review personal data and copyright.** Creator names, spoken personal data, and the media itself may be protected. Apply the law, consent requirements, retention rules, and source terms that govern your use case.

### Frequently Asked Questions

#### get wistia video transcript without an api key?

Yes for a supported public item: you provide the source URL and an Apify token, not a developer key for Wistia. Private or login-gated media remains outside scope.

#### wistia transcript api pricing?

The FREE-tier transcript event is $0.387, the 1 GB Actor Start is $0.01, and metered usage is separate; optional translation adds $0.15 when it completes.

#### Does Wistia Transcript return timestamps?

Yes. Each `transcript.segments` entry includes formatted `start`, `end`, and `text`, and translated segments keep the same order.

#### Can I upload a media file?

No. This platform edition accepts one public source URL; use the universal Video Transcript Actor for an authorized file upload.

#### Can I submit multiple URLs in one run?

No. The public schema accepts one media item per run, so a list must be orchestrated as separate Actor runs.

#### Why are some source fields null?

Different pages expose different metadata. A null value means the source or extractor did not provide that value; it is not a measured zero.

#### Can I schedule repeated transcription runs?

Yes. Apify schedules can repeat a fixed input, but each execution is a new billed run and source availability or counts may change.

```bash
echo '{
  "video_url": "https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/h1z3uqsjal"
}' |
apify call agentx/wistia-transcript --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,agentx/wistia-transcript"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
