# Download meeting artifacts

GET https://api.athenaintel.com/api/v0/meetings/{asset_id}/download

Download a meeting artifact. By default streams a ZIP archive containing metadata.json plus every available artifact (video recording, raw transcript, formatted transcript, chat). Pass the artifact parameter to download a single artifact instead. Works for every meeting, whether its artifacts are stored on the meeting itself (meetings captured since September 2026, whose artifact asset IDs are null) or as separate child assets.
