Recording status callback

Payload sent by SignalWire to your RecordingStatusCallback URL when a recording status event occurs.

Recordings are not always available immediately — especially at high call volumes. This callback lets your app react as soon as a recording is ready, whether that means uploading it to external storage, sending it via email, or forwarding the URL via SMS.

Configure RecordingStatusCallback when creating a call via the API or when using Dial, Conference, or Record.

Use RecordingStatusCallbackEvent to request callbacks for specific events. If omitted, only the completed event is sent. Possible values: in-progress, completed, absent.

Status	Description
`in-progress`	The recording has begun.
`completed`	The file is available for access.
`absent`	The recording was too short or the call was silent — no audio was detected.
