Record Microsoft Teams meeting

Created by Sofie Brijs, Modified on Wed, 2 Feb, 2022 at 6:12 AM by Sofie Brijs

In order to record your MS Teams meeting(s), you will have to use your own tenant so that you have full control of the meeting options. Read here how to add your custom meeting URL.


After you have added your custom meeting URL, there are 2 options to record your Microsoft Teams meeting: 


1) Record manually

The meeting owner of the Teams meeting can record the session manually.

Follow the next steps:

  1. Make sure that you are the creator of these meetings (or have the correct rights within your tenant to record it)
  2. Open the Teams meeting
  3. Click on the 3 dots (...) on top in the menu
  4. Select 'start recording
  5. To stop the recording select 'stop recording'. If you don't stop the recording manually, it will automatically continue recording until the last person has left the meeting. 
  6. The recording will appear in the Teams chat from that meeting and can be donwloaded via https://web.microsoftstream.com/



2) Record automatically

In case you prefer to record your Team meeting(s) automatically, because you have multiple parallell sessions for example, you can follow the next steps: 


  1. Open the meeting options of your MS Teams meeting
    • Allow everyone to bypass the lobby
    • Select ‘Record automatically’
    • Select 'Save'
  2. As soon as the first person enters the meeting, the recording will start automatically
  3. The recording will continue as long as there is minimum 1 person present in the meeting, meaning that the recording will stop as soon as everyone has left meeting
  4. The recording will appear in the Teams chat from that meeting and can be donwloaded via https://web.microsoftstream.com/


Extra information

  • You can record as many different Teams meetings as you like at the same time, by using only 1 Teams tenant
  • If the last person leaves the teams meeting, and comes back later again, you will have 2 separate recordings
