Turn on automatic recording Google Meet with API

[ronja]

Hello,

If I have details of a calendar event with conferenceData - is there a way to turn on the automatic recording of the meeting using the API? I know I can do it manually as a host (see image), but I want to automate it with the API. 

Many Thanks!

This is not possible, there are some considerations around privacy / security.

Hi KevinApodaca,

Thank you for the answer. Is there any way to go around it? I need to automatically record all meetings.

No, not via API
