How To 

This document steps you through the process of downloading recorded meetings or classes you’ve captured in Zoom so that you can save them locally or upload them to Panopto, OneDrive, or Google Drive. Zoom recordings are kept for 180 days and then moved to a trash folder for an additional 30 days, so any recordings you wish to save need to be downloaded before then.

Before using this article, please be aware that if you would prefer to access a PDF that includes screen captures for this process, one is available to the right under attachments. You may download it or click view to read it in your browser window.
