# Set Transcription Pause

`POST /api/voice/translation/{call_id}/pause-transcription`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.dialogbrain.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.dialogbrain.com/api/voice/translation/{call_id}/pause-transcription`
- Auth: none declared

User_call: toggle transcript generation on/off mid-call. When
paused=True, /internal/voice/persist_turn skips the message INSERT —
no transcript bubble appears in the inbox and no translation is
spawned. STT keeps running at the LK worker so the operator can flip
back without losing audio mid-utterance. Independent of the
`paused` (translation) flag.
