Recording a powerpoint presentation to be used later via a link

Hi @saundra 

Yes, you can record a powerpoint presentation during a Zoom meeting and use it later. I would suggest the following: 

1. Schedule a meeting named after the presentation. This will be helpful for finding the recording later on. 
2. I'd suggest not inviting anyone to the session, so that you can get a clean, uninterrupted recording of your presentation. 
3. Share your presentation in the meeting 
4. Begin recording to the cloud.

Once you're done recording, end the meeting and wait for the cloud recording to finish processing. Then you can get the sharing link and send that out for others to view the recording.  
Keep in mind, this process requires a Pro account, since you are recording to the cloud. You can also record locally, but will need to use a cloud storage service, such as Google Drive, to upload the file and share a link to that recording. 

If you just need to record audio for your powerpoint, that is something you can already do within Powerpoint itself. This guide shows you how to do that without using Zoom at all. 

Hope that helps and please make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.
