Missing file extension

API and Webhooks
1

Hello, We recently noticed a change that the file extension for a recording of a call is no longer included. The provided URL provides the file name. For example:
https://.zoom.us/recording/download/aXrbiWSyQLCvLN3J90a5bpDD_pdgDCRMi2VVynpyNboXxSnhiyXZljNPYgD8uiRB?access_token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzUxMiJ9.eyJpc3MiOiJodHRwczovL2V2ZW50Lnpvb20udXMiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiJPYTlmcVQwclNIdTRRZFVhRm1DSGt3IiwiYXVkIjoiTHRZN3NFYVJRYUNHTnpPcXk1R0VBIiwiZXhwIjoxNTY5NDU2MTIyNjgwLCJ1c2VySWQiOiJQMXVmNmxueFFxeVhONlNTLURRS3dRIn0.C-sCbdIQcbnl4DMxm_GWq_35lgtHUevQ_s4WOjmRFg7leKGnPMZr1HXjx5rKZPqkpybhCEK98AjMsnf8tqa1NQ

This URL was served from Zoom after recording completion. When reviewing the URL, it was noticed that there is no extension written within the address.
How can we ensure Zoom provides the file extension in this case?

Hey @renang,

I do not recall us ever including the file extension in the download_url.

If you need to know what the file type is, there is a file_type value in the payload of the recording endpoints and webhooks.

Thanks,
Tommy
