Recording events

If you will be recording your calls, you might be interested in monitoring the status of those recordings. Daily's recording events help you monitor that and respond accordingly.

recording-started

Compatibility:
Prebuilt
Custom

Emitted for all participants when a recording starts.

All recording-started events include the type of recording started ("local", "cloud", or "raw-tracks").

When the type is "cloud" or "raw-tracks", the recording-started event will also include startedBy with the participant ID of the person who started the recording. "cloud" recordings will also include the same layout property as live streaming events.

If you start a "local" recording, you may get some of these properties in your event, but other participants will only get an event containing {"action": "recording-started"}.
