Environment

  • Recordings are only saved in the cloud for 30 days for all tiers of users. If the user needs to archive their recordings in OneDrive, they need to do so within 30 days.
  • The following note applies to both public and admin portal scenarios. Only Chrome appears to allow the download of multiple files in .mp4 (video) format at this time.

  • Once the session is over and the videos have been processed, the host will receive the following email with cloud recording information. The first link will require host credentials at zoom.com. The second link is the public link to the same videos.

    2. If your "My Documents" is not mapped to OneDrive, then manually migrate the Zoom recordings into OneDrive.
  6. Press "trash" icon next to your video to delete video from Zoom Cloud, if desired.
