Record, Watch, and Manage Meeting Recordings
Starting and stopping a recording
- During a meeting, click More actions (the … icon) in the toolbar at the bottom. The toolbar hides after a few seconds; move the mouse to show it again.
- Select Record, then confirm.
Only the moderator can record.
A notification and a voice announcement confirm that recording has started. You can record multiple times during one meeting.
To stop, open More actions again and select Stop Recording.
Watching and downloading a recording
- Open Meetings in the home menu. The list starts with the Status filter on Upcoming, so meetings that have already taken place are hidden: open the Status filter and choose Select all (or Expired) to see them with their recordings.
- Find the meeting. Its Recording column shows Yes (…) with the total length and size of its recordings, Processing... while a recording is in progress or still being prepared, or No.
- Hover over the meeting's row, click … and choose Watch recording. This entry only appears for meetings that have recordings.
The viewer shows the meeting title and who started the recording in its top bar, e.g. "Kick-off follow-up (Initiated by Elena Rossi)". The recording plays automatically. If a meeting has several recordings, the title starts with a counter such as "[1/2]"; use the ← / → arrow keys to switch between them. Press Esc or click the X at the top left to close the viewer.
Click Download at the top of the viewer to save the recording.
Deleting recordings
You can delete just the recording you're watching, or all of a meeting's recordings at once:
- While watching a recording, click Delete at the top of the viewer and confirm to remove only the recording you are watching. When the last recording is removed, the viewer closes.
- From the Meetings grid, hover over a meeting's row, click … and choose Delete recordings (only shown for meetings that have recordings). EMDESK asks "Do you really want to delete all recordings?"; confirm to remove all of that meeting's recordings in one go.
