Recording


(warning)

Warning

For Customers building HIPAA-compliant workflows with Recordings, we require customers to enforce at least HTTP Authentication. To learn more about building for HIPAA compliance, please visit the latest requirements here(link takes you to an external page).

A Recording resource represents the recording associated with a voice call, conference, or SIP Trunk. Using the Recordings REST API you can fetch, start, stop, pause, resume, and delete voice recordings.

You can initiate a recording for your call, conference, or trunk via one of the following methods.

  1. <Record> in TwiML
  2. <Dial record> in TwiML
  3. <Conference record> in TwiML
  4. Record=true in an outbound call via the REST API
  5. Enable recording on an elastic SIP Trunk in the Twilio Console(link takes you to an external page)
  6. Post to Recording resource of an in-progress Call SID

Once a recording is initiated, you can optionally pause, resume, or stop the recording

Fetch a Recording's media file

fetch-a-recordings-media-file page anchor

_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Recordings/{Sid}.mp3

You can fetch a Recording's media file by appending .wav or .mp3 to the Recording Resource's URI.

It's only possible to fetch a Recording's media file when the Recording's status is completed and the media is stored at Twilio.

If the media associated with a Recording Resource is not available/was deleted/was uploaded to external storage, the request returns Not Found.

Without an extension, or with a ".wav", a binary WAV audio file is returned with mime-type "audio/x-wav". For example:


_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/ACXXXXX.../Recordings/RE557ce644e5ab84fa21cc21112e22c485

WAV files have a bitrate of 128kbps

Appending ".mp3" to the URI returns a binary MP3 audio file with mime-type type "audio/mpeg". For example:


_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/ACXXXXX.../Recordings/RE557ce644e5ab84fa21cc21112e22c485.mp3

MP3 files have a bitrate of 32kbps

Download dual-channel media file

download-dual-channel-media-file page anchor

Call recordings are stored at Twilio in dual-channel by default. The media file associated with the recording resource of a two-party call has two channels and contains the audio from each call leg in a separate channel. The RequestedChannels query parameter can be used to specify whether the file should be downmixed to a single channel or if the file should be downloaded in its original, dual-channel format.

(warning)

Warning

For backward compatibility, if the RequestedChannels query parameter is not specified, the downloaded file's format will be the format that was specified when the recording was created.

For voice recordings in which dual-channel is not supported, like those created with <Conference> or <Record>, all audio from a recording will be saved in a single channel file. If a dual-channel recording is explicitly requested for download in these instances, the response will be Not Found.

Example: Download MP3 media in dual-channel format

Append .mp3?RequestedChannels=2 to your Recording's URL


_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/ACXXXXX.../Recordings/RE557ce644e5ab84fa21cc21112e22c485.mp3?RequestedChannels=2

Example: Download WAV media in dual-channel format

Append .wav?RequestedChannels=2to your Recording's URL


_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/ACXXXXX.../Recordings/RE557ce644e5ab84fa21cc21112e22c485.wav?RequestedChannels=2


Fetch a Recording's Transcriptions

fetch-a-recordings-transcriptions page anchor

Each Recording instance resource has a Transcriptions subresource which represents the set of transcriptions generated from the recording (if any):


_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Recordings/{RecordingSid}/Transcriptions

This will return the set of transcriptions available for the recording identified by {RecordingSid}. See the Transcriptions resource documentation for properties and response formats.


Read multiple Recording Resources

read-multiple-recording-resources page anchor

_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Recordings.json

This API call returns a list of Recordings, each representing a recording generated during a call or conference for the given account. The list returned includes paging information.

(warning)

Warning

The list of Recordings is protected by your account credentials like most parts of this API. You must use HTTP basic auth to access the Recordings list resource.

You can also get a list of Recordings from a specific call or conference by including the call or conference SID in your request like so:


_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Calls/{CallSid}/Recordings.json
_10
GET https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Conferences/{ConferenceSid}/Recordings.json

(information)

Info

In the following two examples, note the use of Twilio.CURRENT to reference the currently active recording without requiring an explicit Recording SID.

Twilio.CURRENT can be used for pause, resume, or stop actions on calls with only one active recording.

(warning)

Warning

Note that if your use case has multiple or concurrent recordings for a call or conference, you will need to use the Recording SID to reference the correct one. Using Twilio.CURRENT to reference a recording on a resource that has multiple recordings will result in an error that the request failed because there is more than one recording for the given Call.
