Recording a Zoom Meeting

To record a meeting in Zoom, click on the Record button in the Zoom controls...

Once your meeting has ended, you should see a message that the recording is being converted...

When that finishes, file explorer will open the folder where the recordings were saved (default will be in your Documents > Zoom > [folder name based on date and meeting name])

There will be four files:

1. audio_only.m4a - This is the audio from the meeting
2. chat.txt - a transcript of all of the chats, including private chats to the meeting host (or whoever recorded the meeting)
3. playback.m3u - this is a metadata file that contains playlist information
4. zoom_0.mp4 - This is the video/audio recording of your meeting

You can rename the mp4 file and save it to your local computer. If you would like to share the recording, you can:

• Upload & share with Microsoft Stream
• Save it to a SharePoint document library
• Embed the video in SharePoint
