How long will I have access to cloud recording?

Hello,

 

We hosted a series of meetings and shared the Zoom cloud recording links with attendees. Will the links eventually expire? 

 

I've tested links from last fall, which still seem to be working. However, I've gotten a few message about cloud recordings being deleted so I wanted to double check here.

 

Thanks!

Monica

    No, cloud recordings will be available on your account for as long as you are a paid user.

     

    It is possible for recordings to be automatically deleted, but that is a specific setting on the account that has to be enabled. You can find that on the Recording tab of the Account Settings page

    @monica13 ,

     

    It depends on your setting. Once moved to the Trash folder, Zoom allows you to recover a recording within 30 days of deletion. If you delete the recording from the trash or if the recording is in the trash for 30 days; it will be permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.

    Thanks @Mathi . Does Zoom automatically move recordings to the Trash folder after a certain period of time?

    If you are not a paid user, does zoom record? If so, how do you access the recordings and how long are they available?

    Cloud recordings will be deleted automatically after they have been stored for 365 day(s).
