Call Recording in Freeswitch

I have a freeswitch working on one server and call is working fine. But now i want to record each and every call to some specific format like .wav OR .gsm I already tried with "record_session" application.Record session application

Is it right application for record call ?

If yes then please suggest me to some example and if not then suggest me other application also.

This question is old but I'll still answer it for the people who could benefit in future.

record_session will record the entire session including the ringing. If you just want to record the conversation use execute_on_answer=record_session followed by complete file path, like so:

<action application="export" data="execute_on_answer=record_session $${base_dir}/recordings/${strftime(%Y%m%d%H%M%S)}_${caller_id_number}.wav"/>

You can record a call by adding the command below into the dialplan:

<action application="record" data="/tmp/data.wav 20 200"/>

The format of this is record,Record File,<path> [<time_limit_secs>] [<silence_thresh>] [<silence_hits>] with time_limit_secs, silence_thresh, silence_hits all being optional.

Refer the FreeSWITCH wiki for more details.

EDIT: As @hdiogenes pointed out, this records like a voicemail. What you OP is looking for is the application record_session.
