# Record and replay live streams

Live streams are automatically recorded, and available instantly once a live stream ends. To get a list of recordings for a given input ID, make a [GET request to /live\_inputs/<UID>/videos](https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/resources/stream/subresources/live%5Finputs/methods/get/) and filter for videos where `state` is set to `ready`:

Request

```
curl -X GET \-H "Authorization: Bearer <API_TOKEN>" \https://dash.cloudflare.com/api/v4/accounts/<ACCOUNT_ID>/stream/live_inputs/<LIVE_INPUT_UID>/videos
```

Response

```
