Closed Caption .vtt edit in Stream

Love the closed caption creation on upload but how do I edit the .Vtt file created to correct our acronyms and accent? TIA

    So it would be as follows...
    - After the autogenerated caption file is created and shows the transcript mode on the video.
    - Edit the video
    - Options section > Captions > "Download file"
    - Open up the .VTT file downloaded in a text editor, make corrections, etc.
    - Go back and edit the video > Options > Captions
    - Uncheck the "autogenerate a caption file" check box.
    - "Upload a caption" file button.
    - Upload your edited .VTT file.
     
    We'll then use your new custom caption file for the transcript mode and deep search.
     
    NOTE: We'll be adding ability to edit the transcript direclty in Stream in the future as I know the above isn't intuitive or easy.
