Get recordings from video SDK account using API

[Parth]

I completed my meeting using video sdk and I recorded the meeting. Now I want to get the recordings of the meeting by Zoom video SDK API, so I used the same API as per the documentation, but inside the documentation, you guys didn’t mention which access token I need to use for that API call. The link of the video sdk api JWT is invalid, here is that link - https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/build/video-sdk-app/#video-sdk-and-api-credentials.

So, please help me with that API, please share the detail of getting the meeting recording API and how to generate an access token for that API.

Hi @Parth ,

To access your recording via API, you’ll need to use the API JWT as a bearer token in your authorization header. Here is a current link to the documentation describing the process, under the “Video SDK API” section. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Thanks,
Rehema

I’m able to get recordings now. But I’m not getting recording audio files of each participant even though I enabled it in the account setting recording tab. I’m also able to see the audio recording of each participant in my account dashboard in Zoom.us. Is there anything else I need to do? Please help me with it.

Hi @Parth ,

Could you attach a screenshot of the response you’re getting from the API (covering an PII, if any)?

Thanks,
Rehema

Hi @rehema.zoom ,

I have delivery soon, can you please look into it as soon as possible.

Thank you.

[rehema.zoom (Rehema)]

Hi @Parth ,

I apologize for the delayed response. When you click the download link for each recording, which ‘recording_type’ is missing audio files?

Best,
Rehema

[Parth]

@rehema.zoom

Please check I added an API response in the above comment, where I don’t find any recording URLs for highlighted files of individual participant audio files in the above picture.

Can you please look into it?

Thank you.

[elisa.zoom (Elisa)]

Hi @Parth
Have you tried using this endpoint?

List session’s recordings?

Zoom Video SDK API

Could you please specify what endpoint are you calling to get the response you are getting?

[Parth]

Thank you for your reply @rehema.zoom and @elisa.zoom

But now I have one more query I’m able to get each participant recording audio files but how can I identify the file of which participant?
