AccessDenied when trying to get Teams recording content

Question

This question is about the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/callrecording-get?view=graph-rest-beta&tabs=http resource

I have created a new app registration that request for the OnlineMeetingRecording.Read.All DELEGATED permission, and my Azure admin approved my request.

When accessing the /me/onlineMeetings/{meetingId}/recordings/{recordingId} endpoint for a given meeting and recording, I'm able to obtain the specific recording details:

{
    "@odata.context": "https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/$metadata#users('xxxxx')/onlineMeetings('[meetingId]')/recordings/$entity",
    "id": "[recordingId]",
    "meetingId": "[meetingId]",
    "meetingOrganizerId": "[meetingOrganizerId]",
    "createdDateTime": "2023-08-30T17:30:46.7647838Z",
    "recordingContentUrl": "https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users/[userId]/onlineMeetings/[meetingId]/recordings/[recordingId]/content"
}

(ids redacted)

HOWEVER, when trying to hit the /me/onlineMeetings/{meetingId}/recordings/{recordingId}/content for that same meeting and recording, I get:

{
    "error": {
        "code": "accessDenied",
        "message": "Access denied",
        "innerError": {
            "date": "2023-09-13T21:59:36",
            "request-id": "[requestId]",
            "client-request-id": "[client-request-id]"
        }
    }
}

(ids redacted)

Nothing in the documentation covers that scenario, is there something I should ask my Azure Admin to enable? am I missing something? or could this be related to the metered feature?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Ricardo Sánchez

You may not be the meeting organizer. In delegated permission scenarios, getting callRecording content is supported only for the meeting organizer.

Notes:

• In delegated permission scenarios, getting callRecording content is supported only for the meeting organizer. Meeting participants don't have permission to download meeting recordings. For more information, see permissions or role-based access. Tenant admins can unblock meeting participants to download meeting recording. For more information, see block the download of Teams meeting recording files.

Hope this helps.
