Question / Help Automating File Saves

Is it possible to have a long live stream but have external software tell OBS to save sections of the stream to a file. The external program would control when the stream is saved to disk and the filename.

Is there an API to control this type of thing or is it possible with a custom plugin?
 
There is an API for it, though it requires C++ at the moment. There's also OBS Remote which allows you to remotely turn on/off the stream.
 
Thanks, good to know that functionality is available in the API, I take it that's OBSapi.dll

OBS Remote looks great very nearly meets my needs.
