What is a compliance recording API?
A compliance recording API lets developers automatically record meetings based on organizational recording rules. These rules determine which meetings must be recorded, store recordings securely, and allow them to be retrieved later for auditing or review.
Compliance recording ensures required conversations are captured and stored automatically without relying on users to start recordings manually.
Policy-driven
meeting recording
With Recall.ai’s Compliance Recording API, your organization defines which meetings must be recorded. When a meeting matches your rules:

Recording starts automatically

Recording starts without user action

Capture continues until the meeting ends
Because recording is policy-driven, required meetings are captured consistently without relying on manual workflows.

Recall.ai’s Compliance Recording API supports Microsoft Teams compliance recording and extends the same rule-based recording model across Zoom, Google Meet, Slack Huddles, Webex, and other platforms.
Developers integrate once and manage recording behavior consistently across meeting platforms.
