Recording Your Zoom Meeting

Zoom allows you to record your meeting to the cloud or to your local computer.  In your Zoom meeting, click the record button: you will then see the option to Record on this computer or Record to the Cloud.  By default, the recording will capture the active speaker and any screen sharing .  If you save the file to your local computer, you will have to manually distribute these files to students using a different tool like OneDrive or Panopto.

Zoom cloud recordings will stay in the cloud for 150 days, at which point they will be sent to the trash.  They will remain in the trash for 30 days and will then be permanently deleted.

Zoom recordings can be accessed in two ways:

• If the recording was a Canvas course meeting, you can find it in the course Zoom area under the Cloud Recordings tab.  See our page on Viewing Cloud Recordings for more info on this.
• You can sign into https://stonehill.zoom.us and select the Recordings option from the left-hand menu.  This will show you all cloud recordings whether they are a Canvas course or not.  Click the name of the recording to access more options.  You can watch, download, and share the recording from this page.

Downloading a Zoom Cloud Recording

If you need to keep your recording for longer than the 150 days, you can download a copy of it in two ways:

If the recording is from a Canvas course meeting:

1. Go into your Canvas course and select the Zoom menu link.
2. Select the Cloud Recordings tab.
3. Your list of recordings will be here.  Select the desired meeting.
4. Click the Download button underneath the thumbnail of the recording or the audio transcript.

If the recording is not from a Canvas course meeting:

1. Sign into https://stonehill.zoom.us
2. Select Recordings from the left-hand menu.
3. Your list of recording will be here.  Select the desired meeting.
4. Click Download to download all files associated with the recording (Video, audio, and transcript file) or hover over the specific file-type you wish to download, and click the Download button that appears.

Once downloaded, you can upload it to Panopto.  Storing the video in Panopto will also enable you to use tools like editing, sharing, and adding captions to your Zoom recordings.
