Recordings and replays
Where your recording goes, choosing who can watch it, and what it costs you in storage.
- events
- video
- storage
A recording only exists if the session was actually recorded. Either you ticked "Record this session" when you created the event, or you pressed Record while it was running. Nothing is recorded by default.
Recordings are on the Recordings tab of your events console.
The stages
Recording while the session is live, then Processing, then Ready. The table updates itself, so you can leave it open.
How long processing takes depends on how long the session was. A ninety minute call is not instant.
Choose who can watch
Each recording has a dropdown with five options:
Only me, the default safe choice
Everyone, which for a public event means anyone at all, signed in or not
Invited members, the people on the invite list
Members who RSVP'd
Anyone with the link, offered only on public events
Or put it in a course
Share to course moves the recording into a course as a lesson, which is usually the right home for a session worth rewatching.
Common questions
Where do members watch it?
On their Events tab, under the past sessions, with a Watch link once it is ready. While it is still processing it says so and is not clickable.
I recorded a session but there is nothing here.
Either recording was never started, or it is still processing. If you never pressed Record and did not tick the option beforehand, there is nothing to recover.
Can I download it?
Not directly. Share it to a course if you want it somewhere permanent.
Does recording use up my participant hours?
No. Recording itself is free. Only the people in the call count.
