Hi there, We have recently discovered that our automated process of downloading meeting recordings have started receiving 404 3301 errors when it tries to call the Delete Meeting Recording File API with the recording file’s id. These files do exist and appear in both the Get List Of Recordings API and in the Zoom Recording Management page, on which we are able to delete those files manually. We have been running this automated process before for several months without issue, our code for this process hasn’t been changed since. Could you please look into the cause of this errror? ---

Hi @eot , How recently did you start seeing this change? We made some [bug fixes April 18th](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/stay-up-to-date/changelog/) to some recording-related endpoints so I want to decipher if there’s a correlation. Thanks so much, Gianni ---

Hi Gianni, The earliest we encountered this problem was when our automated process ran around 19th April 11pm AEST. We had a long public holiday weekend so the previous time that automated process was calling the Delete Recording API was on the 14th April 11pm AEST. From what we can ascertain, it encountered no problems deleting the recording files during that time. We aren’t sure exactly when this problem started between those two dates. As of 22nd April 8am AEST, we’re still encountering this error from the API and having to resort to manually deleting the recordings through the web portal. ---

I would like to add that we have been experiencing the same issue that is described. Getting response from Postman, { ``` "code": 3301, "message": "This recording does not exist." ``` } However, recording can be seen from API calls, web page and Postman (and can be manually deleted) ---

I can confirm this. Since 18th of April, our organization is facing the similar issue, and this has caused a lot of inconvenience. @gianni.zoom I believe the bug fixes made on April 18th caused this issue. Kindly provide a solution as early as possible, as this bug is exhausting our resources. Thanks ---
