Quick summary
An ambient session captures patient-provider conversations and generates clinical notes in real-time. The SDK handles recording, note generation, and error handling automatically.

Manage sessions in two ways: uncontrolled mode where users interact only with SDK UI controls, or controlled mode where your EHR system controls when sessions start and stop through external triggers.

An ambient session captures patient-provider conversations and generates clinical notes in real-time. The SDK handles recording, note generation, and error handling automatically. To generate notes, you must configure sections that organize the content. Use either predefined note types or LOINC codes. The SDK creates notes from the conversation using these configured sections.
LOINC code support is available in version 2.0 and above. See the note sections documentation for supported codes. For older versions, contact support to configure note types.

Session management in Web SDK

Manage ambient sessions in the Web SDK in two ways:

Uncontrolled Mode

Users interact only with SDK UI controls. The SDK manages the session lifecycle automatically.

Controlled Mode

Your EHR system controls the session lifecycle (start, stop, resume) through external triggers. The SDK handles recording and note generation while your app controls when sessions start and stop.
