WebEx API record an Event session

bbalzarini — Tue, 15 Nov 2016 16:48:22 GMT

Is there a way to indicate through the XML API that a WebEx Event session should be recorded? I see there is a LstRecordedEvent call but no reference anywhere to how to record an event so that it can be listed.

Is there also a way to mark a Training Session to be recorded through the API?

The WebEx XML API can configure a event to allow or disable recording; but it cannot force the host to record the event.

If you wish to force recording the only option is a Site-Wide change; this will force all sessions to record and cant be over-ridden by the host.. this however will be in effect for every event if its enabled.

Here is the option you'll find in SiteAdmin under EventCenter/TrainingCenter site options.

Thank you Ryan that is good to know.

Can you show me what the piece of the XML request look like that allows / disables recording on an event/training session basis? I don't see anything like that in the XML API Reference Guide.

For Training Center in CreateTraningsession/SetTrainingsession

<enableOptions> <trainingSessionRecord>true</trainingSessionRecord> </enableOptions>

Thanks for the snippet for training sessions. Do you know if the same is possible for events?
