Updating call recording link (optional)

If you are using a legacy call recording player link, you will need to update that link. We do recommend that you use the new call recording player. For information about the new call recording player, see Embedding the call recording player in Salesforce tasks. If you wish to continue using the older version, update the URL used in the link. For information about setting up a link, see Adding a call recording link to Salesforce tasks, editing your existing custom field rather than creating a new one.
