Retrieve Recordings
Once a bot leaves a meeting and processing completes, every artifact is one GET away. All download links are presigned S3 URLs — no extra auth needed, but they expire, so fetch fresh links rather than storing them.
Mixed audio
The link is valid for 1 hour. Mixed audio is always produced, even when per-participant streams are enabled.
Video
The response carries the presigned video_url (valid 10 minutes) plus a video_info block with duration, size, resolution, fps, and processing stats — useful for sanity-checking a recording before you pipe it downstream.
Recording video is opt-in on create_bot. Audio-only bots skip video capture entirely, which reduces bandwidth and processing time — the right default for transcription-first products.
Per-participant streams
With audio_separate_streams / video_separate_streams enabled at create time:
Full capture details, platform isolation levels, and segment semantics: per-participant audio and video.
Handling 202 (still processing)
Media endpoints return HTTP 202 while the bot is still in the meeting or post-call processing is running — per-participant video responses include a stage field showing where the pipeline is. Poll again after 10–30 seconds, or skip polling entirely by acting on the audio.processed / video.processed webhook events.
Lifetimes cheat sheet
Expired link? Just call the endpoint again. Retention and deletion behavior: Usage & Retention. Want recordings written straight into your own bucket instead? Custom Storage (BYO S3).
