How to allow customers to stop call recordings

Giving callers the option to stop a recording builds trust, supports compliance with privacy laws such as GDPR and CCPA, and encourages more open conversation.

When enabled, callers press a designated key during the call to stop the recording.


Before you start: this feature requires an active Record action in the call flow. See How to enable a call recording.


Step 1. Open the call flow that uses recording



Step 2. Set the stop-recording key on the Record action


  • Find the Record block in the call flow.
  • Open the dropdown and select the key number the caller must press to stop the recording.



Step 3. Add a greeting that tells callers how to stop the recording


  • Add a Greeting action before the Dial.
  • Record or type a message informing callers of the key they can press.
  • E.g. "This call may be recorded. Press 9 at any time to stop recording."



Step 4. Save and assign the call flow


  • Save the call flow.
  • If this is a new flow, go to Tracking > Numbers and assign it to the relevant tracking numbers.



🎉 Done. Callers can now press the designated key at any time during the call to stop the recording.
