Start / stop recording during a Zoom Sessions event

We are running a webinar via Zoom Sessions. Where is the ability to start or stop the recording manually? The recording controls are not present in their usual location!

 

If the "auto-start" was not configured beforehand, you cannot change this without restarting the ongoing session either.

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @benr77.

 

You should be able to pause or stop and restart the Cloud Recording as the Host. Did you check the More … menu to see if your recording controls were residing there? Many of the menu items will migrate to the More menu if unused for many sessions. 


Ray -- check out the GoodClix website.

Yes, we looked absolutely everywhere. The option was not visible. Also, this was our very first Zoom Sessions event, so it should not have migrated there during the first session. We had a live session going so restarting things was not an option.
