# Get a transcription job by ID



## OpenAPI

````yaml /api-reference/openapi.json get /api/v1/transcription-jobs/{id}
openapi: 3.0.0
info:
  title: Vook API
  description: >-
    Public transcription API. Authenticate every request with your API key:
    `Authorization: Bearer vk_live_…`.


    ## Transcribe a file (3 calls)


    1. **`POST /api/v1/uploads/init`** → returns an `upload_token`.

    2. **`POST {ingress}/upload`**: upload the whole file to the ingress host
    (`https://ingress.vook.ai`, **a different host from this API**) as
    `multipart/form-data` with a single `chunk` field, authenticated with
    `Authorization: Bearer {upload_token}`. The file is sent as a single chunk;
    no chunk index/count is needed. This step is on the ingress service and is
    not listed below.

    3. **`POST /api/v1/transcription-jobs`**: pass the `upload_token` +
    `file_name` + `language` + `diarize`. Returns a job `id`.


    Then **poll `GET /api/v1/transcription-jobs/{id}`** until `status` is
    `completed` (or `partial`/`failed`). Read each id in `transcription_ids`
    through **`GET /api/v1/transcriptions/{id}`** and its `/transcript` /
    `/export` sub-resources.
