As alluded in the instructions post, "If there are groups of users who share a common phone base settings, you can configure station-side recording setting for all of them via changing their base settings. This change will allow all these users to inherit the change and therefore enabled with station side recordings." Typically there should be a relatively small number of base settings, so this should be quick work.

Hi,
Is there a way to enable the internal recording for all users at once?
Instead of going through everyones web RTC one by one.
Kind regards
Kevin

Thanks to all who have applied for this beta program. By now, you should have received an email from us on the enrollment status. There was an overwhelming number of applicants, and thus we were not able to accommodate everyone who applied. Unfortunately we have to turn away some applications as a result. To those who did not get accepted, I hope you understand the circumstances.
To those who have been accepted, we are now targeting beta launch date on the week of November 18. Note that the usual release schedule by region applies in this case as well.
As we draw near the launch, we want to provide a few more details:
- To enable station-side recording once beta is launched, simply configure the phone settings of each user. For WebRTC phones, the setting is at the phone level:
Whereas for hardware phones, the setting is at the line level:
If there are groups of users who share a common phone base settings, you can configure station-side recording setting for all of them via changing their base settings. This change will allow all these users to inherit the change and therefore enabled with station side recordings. - Once enabled with station-side recordings, you should be able to make test calls on these users, and be able to see and review station-side recordings in the usual Interaction Details UI.

- Note that station-side recording can happen independently from any trunk-side recordings. That is, station-side recording can be captured with or without trunk-side recordings enabled in the call. When both are captured, you will see all of them in Interaction Details UI.
- The 3 points identified in the original post (1. no STA support, 2. screen recording viewer will come later, 3 recommendation to use pre-production) should be noted
- There is a currently known defect that this feature will be causing ad-hoc recordings to not be triggerable from Communicate UI if the user has station-side recording enabled. If you are running this beta with production org where ad-hoc recordings are essential to certain set of users, you should not be enabling station-side recording for them. Only users (specifically, phones of those users) enabled with station-side recording will be impacted; other users will not be impacted by this issue even if the org enters the beta program with this feature. We are coming up with a fix which will likely require some time to turnaround. We will provide an update here once we have an ETA.
Thank you once again for your participation. And happy testing once beta launches!

Hi all,
The Genesys Cloud recording team is pleased to announce that enrollment to our beta for Policy Based Station-Side Call Recording has begun!
The ability to capture call recordings at the user's "station" is our essential mechanism moving forward to capture recordings of internal calls. These recordings are not aimed to replace your existing trunk-side recordings, but serve as a complementary mechanism to capture call recordings that are otherwise unable to be captured through external trunks.
There are several considerations that you should be aware of, before deciding to apply for this beta:
- Speech & Text Analytics (STA) will not be supporting station-side recordings -- during beta and also for General Availability (GA) afterwards. This will become a roadmap item later on, if demand is proven popular. For the time being, STA capabilities will continue to be offered via trunk-side recordings only.
- At the beginning of beta, the screen recording UI viewer will be incapable of playing a screen recording that is synchronized to the audio of a station-side recording. The viewer will only be able to playback the screen recording alongside trunk-side recording, as per existing behaviour. The Interaction Details UI will support playback of the station-side audio recording. We anticipate screen recording UI viewer improvement becoming available later during the beta period, where the user can choose to playback which audio alongside the screen recording.
- If you are an enterprise customer with multiple orgs, where some of your orgs are for testing or pre-production purposes, you are recommended to sign up for this beta using only the lower environments to minimize risk exposure to your production environment.
There is no guarantee that a particular Org will be accepted into the Beta; due to the feature's popularity, we anticipate having to turn down some applications as part of the selection process.
If you would like your organization to be considered for beta of this upcoming capability, please complete this enrollment form.
The enrollment will remain open until October 18, 2024. Shortly after, all applicants will receive notification regarding their acceptance status for this Beta. If accepted, you can expect beta to start on the week of November 4, 2024. More information on how to setup, manage, and playback policy based station-side recordings will be shared at that time. You will be expected to use and verify the capability in the weeks following that, and answer a beta feedback survey in 4-6 weeks time. Beta period will only cease when the capability turns to become GA, currently targeting February 2025.
Thank you for being part of our community, and we look forward to your participation!
