They do not have to take part in the meeting to view the recording. Recording within a Teams Group (or a Channel within a Teams Group) gives anyone within that group permission to view the recording. Recording a meeting, privacy policy and permissions (Microsoft Teams article) Access to recordings When you have finished your recording it will be automatically populated into the meeting chat and stored in Microsoft Stream (see below for more information). If the person recording the meeting leaves the recording will continue and stop when the last person leaves the meeting. This message includes a link to Microsoft’s privacy policy which contains further information. Select the More options (three dots symbol)Įveryone in the meeting will receive a notification that the recording has started.The lesson for others attending a Microsoft Teams meeting is to please log out of any Microsoft Teams meeting you attend. The lesson for meeting organisers is to remember to STOP the recording BEFORE you end the meeting. Shortly afterwards you’ll be able to retrieve or view the recording from the meeting chat as normal (see screenshot below.)
Click on their name in this list, then click on the 3 Dots (Ellipses) and choose “Remove from meeting. (See below) You will see anyone who did not log themselves out. To remove someone from the meeting once you’ve logged back in, select Participants in the meeting toolbar. That is, anyone who has left Microsoft Teams running and continued on with other work. You may also need to log any ‘stragglers’ out of the meeting.Log back into the meeting and manually stop the recording.To force the recording to be processed so you can retrieve it, you may need to do one of two things: If just one person does not log themselves out of the meeting, the recording may well continue for up to four hours before it ends automatically. If you forget to stop a Microsoft Teams meeting recording before you end the meeting, the recording will stop automatically provided that everyone logs out of the meeting. So to recap… in case this might be useful to you one day… All I had to do was manually stop the recording. However, while in there I discovered that I didn’t need to bother logging that person out. As with my client’s experience, when I logged back into my meeting I found that there was one person still logged in. He logged them out himself and the recording automatically stopped, was processed and appeared in the meeting’s chat.Ī few days later however, the exact same thing happened to me! I ended a Microsoft Teams meeting but the recording didn’t show up as I expected. I suggested to my client that he log back into the meeting to see if everyone had logged out and, sure enough, a few people hadn’t. Otherwise Microsoft Teams thinks the meeting is still going and keeps recording. However, this requires that all meeting attendees log out of the meeting. When the meeting ends, the recording should end too. After a bit of digging around we worked out that he had forgotten to stop the recording at the end of the meeting. Recently I was contacted by a client who had recorded a Microsoft Teams meeting but the recording wasn’t showing up in the meeting’s chat and he couldn’t find it anywhere. When the meeting is finished, a link will appear in the meeting’s chat, along side the Attendance Report as seen below. The processed recording used to appear in Stream, but now it is stored in OneDrive. Generally when you record a Microsoft Teams meeting, you stop the recording at the end of the meeting and the recording is then processed. Grrrr! Thankfully for you I’ve worked out what’s going on and I’ve found the solution. Everyone knows that you can record a Microsoft Teams meeting, right? But what happens when you finish your meeting and the recording does not appear in the meeting chat? It should be there! The meeting finished an hour ago but it is just not there.
