Overview

This node interacts with the Asterisk PBX system via the Asterisk REST Interface (ARI). Specifically, for the 'Recordings' resource and 'List Live' operation, it retrieves a list of currently live recordings in the Asterisk system. This is useful for monitoring active call recordings in real-time, managing live audio streams, or integrating live recording data into workflows.

Use Case Examples

1. A call center manager uses this node to monitor all live call recordings to ensure quality and compliance.
2. A developer integrates this node to fetch live recording data and trigger alerts or logging in an external system.

Output

JSON

• recordings - An array of live recording objects currently active in the Asterisk system

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for Asterisk REST Interface (ARI) authentication

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the Asterisk API credentials are correctly configured and have sufficient permissions to access live recordings.
• If the node returns an empty list, verify that there are active live recordings in the Asterisk system at the time of the request.
• Network connectivity issues between n8n and the Asterisk server can cause request failures; check firewall and network settings.
