Question
I need to show a link to a session recording after the session is over. But this should be handled programmatically rather than clicking on session recording by the session creator while being on session. I have read something about forced recordings, but I am unable to get it working. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Solution
It's difficult to discern exactly what you're asking for. I read it as this: you need to discover the URL of your recording and include that URL in some content you're presenting.
This can be done programmatically with the Connect API:
- Execute API action
sco-contents
- Include a
sco-id
parameter set to the meeting room's SCO ID. - Include parameter
filter-icon=archive
to limit the results to recordings
- Include a
- Walk the XML results. This XPath:
//sco[@icon='archive']
will select recordings (recordings are also referred to as archives in Connect.) - Select the recording of interest according to your criteria (e.g. most recent) and extract the URL from the entry.
- Each recording will be a
<sco>
element in the results - The URL path will be defined in a child
<url-path>
element. - Append the URL path to the FQDN of your Connect service to construct the full URL.
- Each recording will be a
- Insert URL into your content.
