Import old recordings

[kidhab]

I have some old recordings that were created on a BBB server before we used b3scale. I now use b3scale as a load balancer in front several Greenlight 2 frontends. I want to make these old recodings available for a Greenlight tenant at /admins/recordings.

I'm not sure how to do this. What I tried:

• Check that a entry in the table frontends for that specific Greenlight frontend exists
• Determine the meeting_id from the metadata.xml of the recording
• Manually create a new entry to the table frontend_meetings containing the frontend_id and the meeting_id of the recording
• Run the import via API call (api/v1/recordings-import)
• After that check that an entry in the table recordings was successfully created

Nevertheless the specific recoding isn't available at the Greenlight frontend but all other recordings that were created using b3scale as load balancer are available.

What am I missing? Thanks for your help.

The meeting-ID expected by b3scale is: base64.URLEncode({ frontendKey, meetingId, "b3scl" }), where frontendKey is the frontend identifier and meetingId is the static meeting id. the third component is static. Adjust your import script accordingly and it should work.

Thanks a lot for pointing me in the right direction!
