We will be rolling out a fix to update the timestamp format in .docx and .vtt Teams meeting transcript files to follow the WebVTT timestamp standard. More specifically, the current timestamp, for example, 0:0:0.0 –> 0:0:1.890, will be updated to 00:00:0.0 –> 00:00:1.890 after this fix gets rolled out.
Note: If your organization does not have a dependency on the timestamp of .docx or .vtt transcript files you can safely disregard this message.
When this will happen
We will begin rolling this out in mid-January and expect to complete by the end of January.
What you need to do to prepare
If your organization takes any dependencies on the timestamp of .docx or .vtt transcript files for discovery, compliance, etc, you will need to update to accommodate the WebVTT timestamp standard.
