Short answer

How can my AI find my Daily.co recordings?

Your AI uses the Daily.co MCP to scan your call history and pull specific recording files. It provides direct access links or technical logs for any session you request. You'll get the exact files or data points you need through a simple chat command.

The outcomes

What your AI delivers

The AI handles the data fetching so you don't have to hunt through logs.

FILES

Direct download links

The AI finds the specific recording you need and provides a link to download it immediately.

DATA

Session call logs

Your agent pulls technical logs for any session to show you exactly what happened during the call.

LISTS

Complete recording history

Ask for a list of all past recordings to see a clean overview of your available video files.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

You still need to watch the videos or review the logs yourself to make decisions or take action.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for recordings.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and the Daily.co API.

  1. Identify the session

    The AI looks through your history to find the specific meeting or timeframe you mentioned.

    list_recordings

  2. Pull meeting details

    Once the session is found, the AI grabs the specific metadata for that recording.

    get_recording

  3. Generate access

    The AI requests a specific URL so you can view or download the file.

    get_recording_access_link

  4. Fetch technical data

    If you need to see the connection details, the AI pulls the raw session logs.

    get_logs
