Enable contact recording - Amazon Connect Customer

Enable contact recording

To enable the recording of voice conversations, you need to add a Set recording and analytics behavior block to your flow. You need to do this regardless of whether your Connect Customer instance is enabled for multi-party contacts (enhanced contact monitoring) or third-party contacts.

Important

Chats: You only need to perform these steps for chat conversations if enhanced contact monitoring for chat contacts is not enabled for your instance. Otherwise, chat transcripts are automatically recorded because an S3 bucket was created to store them when you set up your instance. To stop recording chat transcripts, remove the S3 bucket.

To set up recording of conversations
  1. Log in to your Connect Customer instance using an account that has permissions to edit flows.

  2. On the navigation menu, choose Routing, Flows.

    Connect Customer navigation menu, Routing, flows.
  3. Open the flow that handles customer contacts you want to record.

  4. In the flow, before the contact is connected to an agent, add a Set recording and analytics behavior block to the flow.

  5. To configure the Set recording and analytics behavior block, choose from the following:

    • Automated interaction call recording

      • On starts recording customer and IVR audio immediately.

      • Off pauses any ongoing IVR recording.

    • Agent and customer voice recording

      • When On, you can select from Agent and Customer, Agent only, or Customer only. This only take effect after the agent joins the call.

      • When Off, no recording is captured when the agent joins the call.

    • To record chat conversations, choose Agent and Customer.

      Important
