# End a recording early

Canonical page: https://agentsky.dev/tools/recall/bot-leave
JSON record: https://gateway.agentsky.dev/v1/endpoints/recall/bot-leave

End a recording early is a tool from Recall, callable through the AgentSky API as recall/bot-leave and billed per call ($0).

Requests that the recorder leave the meeting and stop capture. Usage remains pending until the supplier completes processing; bot time runs through done and transcription follows the recording lifecycle timestamps. Booking has no separate fee. A $2 prepayment is required; unused funds are returned at settlement. Usage is billed when the recording settles: $0.60 per hour the recorder holds a seat (from joining until supplier completion, including waiting and processing; fatal bot usage is waived) plus $0.18 per hour of recording lifecycle time, rounded to the nearest second without a minimum. Recording stops after two hours. A recorder that is never sent costs nothing; one that waits in a room nobody opens still costs the seat it held.

Confirmation that the recorder is leaving.

## Example

### curl

```bash
# Set once per job; reuse this key and the identical body after a timeout.
: "${AGENTSKY_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY:?Set a unique, saved key for this job}"
curl --fail-with-body https://gateway.agentsky.dev/v1/run \
  -H "authorization: Bearer $AGENTSKY_API_KEY" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $AGENTSKY_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY" \
  -d '{"provider":"recall","endpoint":"bot-leave","input":{"run_id":"run_11111111222233334444555555555555","bot_id":"11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555"}}'
# If status is READY/RUNNING, poll GET /v1/runs/{runId} with the same API key.
```

## Pricing

$0 per call

Read the final customer charge from price.amount.value after the run finishes. A RUNNING response is not the final bill.

## Questions

### What does End a recording early do?

Requests that the recorder leave the meeting and stop capture. Usage remains pending until the supplier completes processing; bot time runs through done and transcription follows the recording lifecycle timestamps. Booking has no separate fee. A $2 prepayment is required; unused funds are returned at settlement. Usage is billed when the recording settles: $0.60 per hour the recorder holds a seat (from joining until supplier completion, including waiting and processing; fatal bot usage is waived) plus $0.18 per hour of recording lifecycle time, rounded to the nearest second without a minimum. Recording stops after two hours. A recorder that is never sent costs nothing; one that waits in a room nobody opens still costs the seat it held.

### How much does End a recording early cost?

$0 per call, using your plan when signed in. The customer charge is returned as price.amount.value with its currency; READY/RUNNING values are provisional.

### What does End a recording early take?

run_id and bot_id are required; the rest of the fields are optional. Send them in the input object of a POST to /v1/run.

### What are the limits on End a recording early?

The catalog lists an execution timeout of 5 min. A request can return READY or RUNNING before completion; poll GET /v1/runs/{runId} with the same API key until it reaches a terminal status. An HTTP timeout does not prove the generation stopped.

### How do I retry safely and check the final charge?

Save a unique Idempotency-Key for each job. After a network error or HTML timeout, resend the identical POST body with the same key and API key to recover the existing run, then poll its runId. A new key can start another billable generation. An HTTP error or timeout does not establish the run outcome or final charge. Pending runs can still settle; check the terminal price.amount and billing state, and retain the runId for reconciliation. Do not automatically create a new job after a terminal failure.
