Recording in MS Teams
In Microsoft Teams, you can record your Teams meetings and group calls to capture audio, video, and screen sharing activity. Teams records your videos in the cloud and saves them to Microsoft Stream so you can share them securely across the College.
Below is a list of recording steps. You can scroll through the entire page or choose a specific topic from the following list:
- Start recording
- Stop recording
- Save recording
- Open recording in Microsoft Stream
- Default permissions for the recording
- Change permissions
- Share the video link
- Edit the video transcript
Start recording
- Click the More options (
) icon on the toolbar. - Click Start recording.
NOTE: If you started the recording, a notice will appear at the top of the meeting window to remind you to let everyone know that you are recording. If you are an attendee to the meeting, a notice will appear at the top of the meeting window to remind you to view the privacy policy. Please see Information Technology Policies for more information.
Stop recording

The following message displays in the recording window and shows that the meeting recording is saving.

Default permissions for the recording
When you schedule a Teams meeting, everyone you invite to the meeting, regardless of their attendance, gets access to the meeting recording by default. You can invite attendees in the following ways:
- From Outlook, you invite the required attendees.
- From the Teams Calendar, you add the required attendees. (NOTE: You also can Add a Channel instead of adding attendees, and that invites everyone who is part of that channel’s parent team.)
