Additionally, if you have team members who could not attend the meeting, you can share the recording with them so they’re in the loop. And to be sure the recording is only accessed by those you select, you can manage access to it. Let’s walk through your options for downloading, sharing, and managing access to your Microsoft Teams recordings.
Download a Teams Recording
You can download a recording from the Microsoft Teams app or online.
Files Section of the App
If you have the Microsoft Teams desktop app open, you can download the recording easily.
Channel or Chat in the App
Maybe you have the channel or chat open in the app and see the recording in the conversation history. If you click it, the recording will open in your browser. At the top of the screen, click Download. Then go to your downloads folder to obtain the file.
SharePoint Online
One more spot you can download the recording from is the SharePoint website (or OneDrive per your company’s preference). Similar to the Files section of the Teams desktop app, navigate to the Recordings folder. Hover your cursor over the More Actions button and choose Download.
Share a Teams Recording
You have a couple of ways to share a Teams recording. You can copy a link to it and then share it where you please, or you send an email with the link to those you want to share it with.
