Any calls made via Gladly are recorded on the Conversation Timeline for reference. But when those calls involve sensitive information (like a Customer’s credit card or personal details), it’s not prudent for those Customers—or your company—to keep those recordings on your systems. You can pause your live call recording when discussing or collecting sensitive information.

. - The recording indicator should turn black, and you’ll also see Recording Paused appear on the top right of the screen.

- From the Customer’s Conversation Timeline, find the recording you want to delete, click, then select Delete Recording.

Pause and Resume call recordings via API #
You can programmatically pause/resume call recordings for Agents via API. For example, you can automatically pause a call recording if an Agent clicks into a credit card field in your OMS system. This way, you don’t rely on Agents to remember to pause call recordings when discussing sensitive information. See our developer guide 
for more details.
