The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

The Content Server records calls and can produce the resulting recordings in a range of formats and sizes for users to watch or download. Creators of recordings can make recordings available to all or selected users.
To make recordings, creators must use a recording alias. A recording alias defines several properties, including ones related to dialing the Content Server from an endpoint for the recording session; specifying recording outputs; and indicating viewing and editing permissions (see Recording Alias Properties).
There are two types of recording alias:
Note We recommend that site managers create one or more personal recording aliases for each group or user in the creator role. For Content Servers that are registered to a H.323 gatekeeper as gateway, a personal recording alias can be automatically created for each user with Creator privileges when the user logs in to the Content Server web interface (see Site Settings).
To create a new recording alias, you must log in as a site manager. Then in the Management tab, go to Recording setup > Recording aliases: Add recording alias.
The following are the properties of every recording alias:
A category is a way to group recordings together in the View Recordings list (for example, under “Announcements” or “News”). In addition to the categories that come pre-configured on the Content Server, site administrators can create new categories (Recording setup > Categories). In the Add recording alias page, you can choose a category from the Category drop-down-list.
Note For more information about each specific recording alias setting, see the Recording Aliases section.
