Automatic Recording is Not Working

When setting up all my meeting, I turn on automatically recording to my computer.  In the the last 5 (or more) sessions, the automatic recording has not worked.  If I remember, I can turn it on during the live session, but would really like not to have to remember when I am live.  Please advise.

    Hey @kkschell, are you recording locally or to the Cloud? If locally, I would ensure that the destination for local recordings is still available or directed correctly. If recording to the cloud, I would ensure you still have space in the cloud for recordings.

    I have this exact same problem, and it kicked off sometime in November or December 2021.  I.e. *before* that time all of my Meeting Room meetings were automatically recorded to the cloud.  Since then, *none* of them have been recorded.

     

    I can replicate the problem now every time... prefernce is set to "Automatic Recording: On", but *no* recording is made!

    I figured it out if you are using a Personal Meeting. Under new meeting hover over your ID and there is a menu. Go to PMI settings then advanced and turn on auto cloud recordings.

    Awesome! This solved my issue, is now recording automatically to the cloud!

    Recently I have got the same problem. Each time, I should do it manually.
    For your information, I searched for help. As the community mentioned, I checked all settings, and everything was correct, but I still have the issue. In addition, I save locally and not in the cloud.

    Hi there so many places to control the recordings of a meeting, ZOOM should definitly make it simple.

    what enentualy worked for me is:

    open zoom app->new meeting-> open the small arrow on the right of it->select the meeting and go to the therd option 'PMI Settings'->Advanced Options->Enable 'Automatically record meeting'.

    i hope it helped like i said there more places to control different type of meeting...

    I am having this problem too. I spent 3 hours this week looking at the multiple settings for Zoom meetings in different places. I tested a meeting and the auto record function is not working correctly. There are better meeting applications.
