Where Does Nextiva Store Recordings and Logs?

Nextiva recordings live in cloud portals with local logs only. Retention, download and log paths.

Last updated

Nextiva call recordings live on company servers, not office PCs. The vendor documents months of default retention with multi-year options, fetched through the recorder portal or app Files sections. Downloads export as WAV to cloud drives or local folders by choice.

Local traces are logs alone. Dated text and compressed error logs sit in a dotfolder in the user profile on desktop, gathered through the official log flow for support. Mobile apps keep everything sandboxed with recordings viewed in-app. No AppData recording folder exists to hunt.

Where Nextiva stores this, by platform

Windows
%USERPROFILE%\.nextiva-Connect-desktop

Dated log text files only, collected per the official support flow. Recordings stay in cloud portals for months by plan with WAV export. Mobile keeps recordings in-app under Files with no user folder.

macOS
~/.nextiva-connect-desktop

Same log-only role as Windows, opened per vendor docs for support bundles. Portal and app views serve recordings; the dotfolder never holds audio.

Frequently asked questions

Where are Nextiva call recordings stored?

On Nextiva servers for months by plan, extendable to years purchased. Open the recorder portal or app Files and download WAV copies where needed. Local folders hold logs only, never call audio.

How long does Nextiva keep recordings?

Half a year by default with longer retention as a paid option. Expired recordings delete server side without local remnants. Download anything load-bearing before the window closes.

What is in the Nextiva dotfolder?

Dated diagnostic logs for support tickets. That is the whole local footprint on desktop. Clearing it drops troubleshooting context while calls and recordings continue untouched.
