Video recording: save every session and play it back any time.
Record the video calls and meetings inside your app with a single request. The session is saved for you, so your customers can replay it, share it or learn from it later.
- One request to start
- Saved automatically
- Replay whenever you like
Choose what a recording looks like
Pick the layout once and every session is saved that way. Keep everyone on screen, follow whoever is speaking, or put a shared screen front and centre.
Everyone together
A tidy grid with every participant in view.
Active speaker
The person talking fills the frame, the rest sit alongside.
Screen first
A shared screen takes the lead, with faces in a small strip.

From the first request to the replay link
Your app asks, MCM captures, and the finished recording is ready to play. You are told at each step, so your own screens can show exactly where things are.

Recording that respects the people on the call
Everyone should know when a session is being recorded. Show a clear notice on screen, ask for agreement where you need it, and keep recordings only as long as you have a reason to.
Say it clearly
A visible recording badge and a short notice for every participant.
Ask when needed
Add a consent step before the session starts, in your own words.
This session will be saved so everyone can watch it again.
Stay in control
Decide who can watch, share or remove a recording.
- Team can watch
- Share by link
- Allow download
General guidance, not legal advice. Rules on recording differ by country, so check them with your legal team.

The questions teams ask on the first call.
What is video recording?expand_more
Video recording saves a video call or meeting as it happens, so people can play it back later. In your app it works through the Comms APIs, with a single request to start.
How do I start a recording?expand_more
Your app sends one request when a session begins. MCM records the video, voice and any shared screen, then tells your app when the recording is ready to play.
Can I record a shared screen too?expand_more
Yes. Screen sharing is part of the same video group, so a shared screen can be captured alongside the faces on the call.
Can participants tell they are being recorded?expand_more
They can, and they should. You can show a clear recording badge and a short notice, and add a consent step before a session starts.
Do I need to follow any rules when recording calls?expand_more
Often yes. Rules on recording differ from country to country, so check the requirements for your markets with your legal team before you turn it on.
Can I offer video recording under my own brand?expand_more
Yes. Partners launch the Comms APIs under their own logo and domain, so your customers record and replay with a product that carries your name.
