Zoom Recordings and OneDrive Storage

LIHub Zoom Recordings and OneDrive Storage

Now that you have recorded your Zoom meeting, please note that we do not have extensive  Zoom cloud storage and any recordings you put in the Zoom cloud could disappear without warning.  Here’s how to save your Zoom recordings to your computer, then to Office 365 OneDrive, and link them to your Canvas class. Attached is a PDF file with instructions on how to save your Zoom meeting recordings to your computer (they are MP4 files), rename the MP4 file, upload it to your TCC OneDrive, and set a link in your Canvas course for students to click on.
