For clients with large datasets where the 10,000 record limit is restrictive, AVANSER provides APIs and Webhooks. See the AVANSER API Services Quick Reference Summary for details on the APIs for extracting existing data, or the Integrations: Webhooks section for transferring call data as calls complete.

Bulk Call Recording Downloads

Audio recordings can be downloaded in bulk for storage elsewhere if required. The Bulk Download Audio button will be shown when recordings are available for download for the period defined in the filter. If no audio recordings are available during the selected period, no button will be shown. When the button is clicked the system will take up to 60 seconds to build the download file and provide the download to the web browser.

Call recordings are stored for 90 days, or a longer period if this is contracted. The page header shows the applicable storage period for the current account.

There is a limit on the size of the bulk download option. If too many records are returned for the period selected by the filter, a message will be displayed as below. Restricted the date range or tracking numbers shown to allow the download.

Too many files to download message

The bulk download feature is intended for small to medium clients. For clients with hundreds or thousands of recorded calls in a week, AVANSER provides APIs that allow call log and recording access. See the AVANSER API Services Quick Reference Summary for details on the API usage.
