Recording your Teams Meeting

To record your Microsoft Teams Meeting

When initially scheduling your Teams meeting, you can check the setting that says “enable auto-recording”. This setting will turn on recording as soon as you start up the Teams meeting room and end when everyone has left the room.

What is recorded by Microsoft Teams?

In Microsoft Teams, recordings of meetings, including those that involve Breakout Rooms, follow specific rules. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what is and isn’t recorded:

What is Recorded: 

  • Each breakout room must have its own recording started manually by someone inside that room. Breakout room recordings do not start automatically with the main meeting.
  • Screen Sharing and Slide Content shared with Powerpoint Live: Animations/Transitions are not shown in the recording when sharing a PowerPoint presentation through PowerPoint Live, the recording will typically show the full slide content at once, rather than animating individual elements.

What is not recorded:

  • Laser pointer, Pen Tool
  • Breakout Rooms unless someone in the breakout room presses record.
