Hello,

We are an online school and online classes are done via zoom meetings. All the meetings are automatically recorded and saved in the zoom cloud. We have had some issues with some kids misbehaving by direct messaging each other.

 

In a meeting, a participant can DM to others. However, it looks like a supervisor can not see the chat log from a recorded video/data unless it is a general conversation.

 

Is there a way we can check direct messages between participants?

 

Thank you.

Hey @PurpleAcademy welcome to the community! Direct Messages in-meeting are a 1:1 conversation, If I recall, I don't believe that direct messages can be saved and shown within a report. You do have the ability to disable private chats in meetings to prevent this in the future.
