Hi there

 

I was the host of a meeting, one of the attendees hit record, I hit allow recording. The recording is not in my C-drive where my recordings usually save. Any suggestions / help would be hugely appreciated.

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @joreillyscott.

 

When someone else requests recording permission and you grant it, they record locally to their computer. You do not have access to it, unless they make it available to you on some sort of file share service.

Hi Ray!

I just attended a zoom meeting (was not the host) I have a basic zoom account but I adjusted my settings to save recordings locally to my device. If I was not the host but hit record and he accepted for me to record the meeting, will the recording come to me or the host? I am not able to find the recording of the meeting on my local HD. Zoom tech support said that the recordings only go to the host. Can you advise?

I'm a newbie here and any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Ray, I just realised I didn’t have the recording of an important client meeting, because they hit record, but I was the host. I accepted the recording because I thought I would still have the recording. It just feels unnatural now to start asking the client for the recording.
I think this needs to be corrected by zoom. The host should at least have access to the recording as well on the cloud. Please zoom look into this. I shouldn’t need to ask for the recording.
