Zendesk Sell recording_url returns 401 Unauthorized when trying to download recording

Our integration uses the endpoint https://api.getbase.com/v2/calls to get a list of call details and stores the value found in recording_url for later use.

When attempting to download the recording via the URL mentioned above, we find that we're receiving a 401 Unauthorized and have been since c.a. 2023-12-16. Previously, visiting this URL would successfully download the recording without authentication being required.

Is this likely to be caused by a setting within the Zendesk Sell instance (e.g. for other Zendesk products, there is a setting that makes it so that users must be signed in to access attachments)? If not, are there any plans to introduce a method of downloading call recordings via the API to enable this use case again in the future?

Hi Daniel,
 
Are voice recordings enabled in your account?  And are you able to access those recordings in the UI?

Apologies for the delay in response, I've been waiting on a response from the end users on this one.

We are recording voice calls and are able to access them via the UI.

Hey @daniel54 did you ever get this sorted out? I am running into the same issue. This is a core competency in our business for Sales Training and enablement as we transcribe the recordings via AssemblyAI. Curious to see if you or anyone else found any solutions to this.
