# Stop conference recording

> Stop an active Vobiz conference recording via DELETE - finalizes the audio file and makes it available for download according to your account retention policy.

```http theme={null}
DELETE https://api.vobiz.ai/api/v1/Account/{auth_id}/Conference/{conference_name}/Record/
```

Stop an active conference recording. Once stopped, the recording is finalized and becomes available for download.

<Note>
  After stopping, the recording file may take a few moments to process. The file will remain accessible per your account retention policy.
</Note>

<Warning>
  If no recording is active for the specified conference, this call returns an error. Recordings are also automatically stopped when a conference ends.
</Warning>

  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Response

```text 204 No Content theme={null}
