Zoom offers local recording to your computer and to the Zoom cloud.* Zoom will provide you with a link to share and you can manage its privacy settings. View your meeting settings to edit your cloud recording settings. Local (to your desktop or laptop computer) recording is available to all users. Note that local recording settings within the Zoom client allow you to capture separate audio tracks for each person that speaks. Using this and the option to optimize for 3rd-party video editor is useful for those that wish to edit the recording for sound bites or podcasts. Zoom’s default settings passcode-protect the webinar recordings’ share links; however, you can turn passcode protection off and customize your recording’s sharing settings by clicking on the Share… button to the right of your webinar recording title and toggling on your preferred options.
