What does the filepath here refer to?

Copy code

async def entrypoint(ctx: JobContext):
    # Add the following code to the top, before calling ctx.connect()

    # Set up recording
    req = api.RoomCompositeEgressRequest(
        room_name=ctx.room.name,
        audio_only=True,
        file_outputs=[api.EncodedFileOutput(
            file_type=api.EncodedFileType.OGG,
            filepath="livekit/my-room-test.ogg",
            s3=api.S3Upload(
                bucket="<S3 bucket name>",
                region="<S3 region>",
                access_key="<S3 access key>",
                secret="<S3 secret key>",
            ),
        )],
    )

    lkapi = api.LiveKitAPI()
    res = await lkapi.egress.start_room_composite_egress(req)

    await lkapi.aclose()

Thanks for reaching out, Fatima. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.

The

filepath

parameter in the

file_outputs

of a

RoomCompositeEgressRequest

specifies the path where the recorded file will be stored in your chosen cloud storage provider. For example, in your code snippet, the filepath

"livekit/my-room-test.ogg"

indicates the directory path and filename where the recording will be saved within your S3 bucket. Sources: Session recording and transcripts | LiveKit Docs | GitHub::livekit::livekit_composite | livekit/livekit-cli/cmd/lk/examples/ro...
