Transcript access controls for AI Companion
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Reading an AI Companion generated transcript used to follow automatically from being able to open the interview feedback. This release separates the two: transcript access becomes its own permission you grant by role, while the interviewer who conducted the interview always keeps access to their own.
WHY IT MATTERS
The permission is granted to every role when it ships, so access stays exactly as it is until you deliberately narrow it.
Interviewers never lose their own work. Whoever conducted the interview keeps access to that transcript regardless of what their role holds.
A reviewer still needs access to the interview feedback first, so this cannot grant anyone more than they had.
FEATURE DETAILS
Who can access | Recruiters, Hiring Managers, Interviewers, Customer Admins |
Feature type | Default On (Non-deferrable) |
Requirements | AI Companion enabled, with companion-attended interviews producing transcripts. |
GETTING STARTED
Admins: In Admin Console, open Roles and Permissions and remove the AI Companion transcript permission from the roles that should no longer read verbatim transcripts. No other change is needed.
For more info, read Configure AI Companion.
End users: A reviewer without the permission still sees the transcript panel, but it shows Transcript locked.
Feedback, ratings, and the AI-generated summary are unaffected. Where transcript download is available, it disappears for anyone who cannot read the transcript.
For more info, read Understand and work with the AI Interview Companion.
