To record without the bot, you can try transcribing the Teams meetings with a desktop recording app. That way you’re capturing/transcribing the audio natively, and you don’t need a bot in the meeting.

You’d get a participant ID and would need a separate call to the Graph API to match that to speaker names (this requires you to maintain a local map of speakerId → display name that you refresh as participants join/leave)
