How to playback a recorded session

Use /stream/{parentId}/sessions?record=1 to a return list of recorded sessions with the same parentId using record=1

curl -H 'authorization: Bearer {api-key}' \
"https://livepeer.com/api/stream/{parentId}/sessions?record=1"

A livestream session recording is available approximately 5 minutes after the livestream session has ended. When the recording is ready, the most recent session stream object recordingStatus value will change from waiting to ready.

⚠️ You will need to poll this endpoint to get the updated recordingStatus values of all listed recorded sessions. In the future, we will support webhooks.

Once the recording is ready, the session stream object's recordingUrl parameter will return the .m3u8 recording playback URL.

The recording playback URL will look something like this: https://region-cdn.livepeer.com/recordings/{id-of-stream-session}/index.m3u8. View the live stream with any HLS video player.

Next, learn track stream usage and duration.
