Export Transcript JSON

Category: Pr Bins & Project Items Export Transcript JSON block screenshot

Exports transcript data from a clip project item as a JSON string. Because this is a pure read expression, it composes naturally with `setVar` and `writeTextFile`. For larger outputs, a common pattern is to pass this expression directly into `writeTextFile`.

Notes​

  • Exports transcript data from a clip project item as a JSON string.
  • This is a pure read expression, so it composes naturally with setVar and writeTextFile.
  • For larger outputs, the common pattern is writeTextFile(path, prExportTranscriptJson(...)).
  • In current Premiere behavior, an exported transcript can still look placeholder-like even after HAS_TRANSCRIPT has become true.
  • If transcript content matters semantically, verify the exported JSON before treating it as ready.
