Is there a way to download the PCAP of a call in LiveKit from code?

Thanks for reaching out, Gerardo. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
Thanks — I can help with that. Quick clarification: do you mean downloading a PCAP for a specific LiveKit room/session after the call ended, or capturing live traffic (streaming PCAP) while the call is in progress? Also tell me whether you're using LiveKit Cloud or a self-hosted LiveKit server. , with interactive elements

Thanks — I’m following up about getting a PCAP for a finished LiveKit Cloud room. I can help, but I need a few details to check availability and the right next steps: • The room name/ID and approximate call start/end timestamps • Any participant/client connection IDs you have (optional but helpful) • Whether you need the server-side capture (as seen by LiveKit Cloud) or client-side captures from a participant device • Was the session recorded using LiveKit recording/track export, or was it a normal non-recorded room? • Do you need an automated API for future requests, or is a one-off download (console or support-assisted) fine? • Your LiveKit Cloud project/organization ID (just the identifier, not secrets) • How long ago the call ended and any retention/compliance constraints Once you share those, I’ll verify whether a PCAP exists for that session and outline the exact steps (API or retrieval path) to get it. , with interactive elements

To clarify our use case: we're not looking for a one-off PCAP retrieval. We need programmatic (API-based) access to server-side PCAPs as part of our automated call diagnostics pipeline.
