Do you have a web API for a 3rd party to access live audio streams on a VoIP call? What steps should a dev take to get access to it?

Hi AK, 

Thanks for that! Our technology transcribes and analyzes audio streams in real time. This allows us to interpret calls while they are still in progress, helping callers pivot their conversations as needed. How do you suggest we access audio streams while a call is active?

Hi Marc,

The primary requirement to download a call recording via API is that the call needs to be completed first. So, for the question of analyzing the audio streams while the call is in progress, you would need to wait until the call is completed and then use a 3rd Party voice to text service like VoiceBase etc. Hope this answers your question !

Check the new softphone SDK: https://github.com/ringcentral/ringcentral-softphone-js

It does allow you to get inbound audio stream in real time.
