Introducing <Start><Recording>!
Announcing <Start><Recording>! A new way to start Call recordings from initiation using TwiML.
We’re excited to announce the launch of <Start><Recording> as GA in all regions. This feature offers the ability to start Call recordings from initiation using a new TwiML <Recording> noun with the <Start> verb.
With <Start><Recording>, customers will be able to record inbound and outbound calls from initiation or at any time within a TwiML document and flow through to the next TwiML instruction, including before the execution of any other TwiML instructions. For example, you may wish to capture interactions with your IVR or <ConversationRelay> which today can only be accomplished by using the Recordings API to start a new recording. For feature parity, <Start><Recording> shares attributes and recording controls with the Recordings resource API; e.g. recordings initiated via <Start><Recording> can be stopped, paused, or resumed via the Recordings resource API.
For more details, refer to the <Recording> documentation.
