## Start Recording Action&#x20;

There are multiple ways to implement this action:

* **Automated**: Using the **Call Status is Open element event** with the Create a Call recording action to start the call recording once the call is answered.

* **Manual**: You can add a recording button to the UI, and trigger the Create a Call recording action when it's clicked. Make sure that this button will be only clickable when the call status is open.
