Recording a Zoom Meeting

This short video will walk you through the process of recording a Zoom meeting.

To start a recording during a Zoom meeting, click the Record button on the bottom of the screen.

It will ask you if you want to record on the computer or record on the Cloud. Recording on the computer will save an MP4 file on your computer while saving on the Cloud will send it to your Canvas course and/or your account at zoom.usu.edu. Saving to the Cloud is the preferred method for easy sharing.

Once the recording has started, you have the option to pause or stop the recording from the button at the bottom. The recording will be generated after the meeting ends.

Note: Cloud recordings are only available for 180 days. However, all Zoom recordings are backed up into your My Media account.
