Thank you. Using curl with the header was the trick. I’d made the mistake of just pasting the url into a browser and expecting it to work.

curl -X PUT --header 'Accept:application/json; charset=utf-8' http://localhost:8087/v2/servers/_defaultServer_/vhosts/_defaultVHost_/applications/live/instances/_definst_/streamrecorders/MyDemoStream.stream/actions/stopRecording
