Overview
Magic redact allows you to blur and mute videos uploaded to notes and the option to redact sections on transcripts. Redactions and blurring will also be applied to relevant highlights in your project and their references within insights across your workspace. However, they’ll need to be updated to display their redacted versions. Learn more about updating references →Dovetail will reprocess and replace the original video on your note with a redacted version when redactions are made. This can take 2-3 times the length of the original video to process. For example, redactions made on a 1-hour video can take 2-3 hours to process before they are visible across your workspace.
