JSON Parameters

name type description
options object The following parameters of the action
options.remotePath string The path to the remote location, where the resulting video should be uploaded. The following protocols are supported http/https, ftp. Null or empty string value (the default setting) means the content of resulting file should be encoded as Base64 and passed as the endpoint response value. An exception will be thrown if the generated media file is too big to fit into the available process memory. This option only has an effect if there is screen recording process in progress and forceRestart parameter is not set to true.
options.username string The name of the user for the remote authentication.
options.password string The password for the remote authentication.
options.method string The http multipart upload method name. The ‘PUT’ one is used by default.
options.forceRestart boolean Whether to try to catch and upload/return the currently running screen recording (false, the default setting on server) or ignore the result of it and start a new recording immediately (true).
options.timeLimit string Recording time. 180 seconds is by default.
options.videoType string (iOS Only) The format of the screen capture to be recorded. Available formats are the output of ffmpeg -codecs such as libx264 and mpeg4. Defaults to mpeg4.
options.videoQuality string (iOS Only) The video encoding quality (low, medium, high, photo - defaults to medium).
options.videoFps string (iOS Only) The Frames Per Second rate of the recorded video. Change this value if the resulting video is too slow or too fast. Defaults to 10. This can decrease the resulting file size.
options.videoScale string (iOS Only) The scaling value to apply. Read Scaling – FFmpeg for possible values. Example value of 720p scaling is ‘1280:720’. This can decrease/increase the resulting file size. No scale is applied by default.
options.bitRate string (Android Only) The video bit rate for the video, in megabits per second. 4 Mbp/s(4000000) is by default for Android API level below 27. 20 Mb/s(20000000) for API level 27 and above.
options.videoSize string (Android Only) The format is widthxheight. The default value is the device’s native display resolution (if supported), 1280x720 if not. For best results, use a size supported by your device’s Advanced Video Coding (AVC) encoder. For example, “1280x720”
options.bugReport string (Android Only) Set it to true in order to display additional information on the video overlay, such as a timestamp, that is helpful in videos captured to illustrate bugs. This option is only supported since API level 27 (Android O).
