How to Download Cloud Recordings from a Zoom Meeting

Zoom meeting recordings can be downloaded in various formats, including MP4 and caption files. This article will guide you through the process of downloading cloud recordings from a Zoom meeting.

Exporting Cloud Recordings

Optionally, you can export a list of cloud recordings or export a CSV of viewing analytics. If you notice several groups of recordings (Recording 1, Recording 2) during the Zoom Meeting, it means that the recording was started, stopped, and then started again.

Downloading Individual Files

To download individual files, click on the 'Download (x files)' button to download all the recordings' files or hold your mouse over one of the files below (e.g., Shared screen with speaker view, Audio only) and click the download button to download just that file.

Accessing Cloud Recordings

Back at the Zoom meeting page, click on 'Recordings' on the left and then click the topic name in blue. You will see a list of your cloud recordings with their Auto Delete date range. If your meeting has not finished converting, the recording will show in the list with a 'Processing Recording' label. Try again later.

Restoring Deleted Cloud Recordings

Deleted cloud recordings can be recovered from the Zoom cloud trash for 30 days after they are moved to the trash. Keep in mind that cloud recordings are automatically deleted as per your Zoom Cloud Recording Retention timeline.

Downloading Multiple Files

To download multiple files, follow these steps: Find the recording you want to view (at the top, adjust the date range and use search if necessary) then click 'More' > 'Download (x files)'.

Cloud Recording Retention

Remember to keep an eye on your Zoom Cloud Recording Retention timeline as cloud recordings are automatically deleted based on that retention timeline. Repeat these steps for other recordings you want to download.

By following these simple steps, you can easily download and access your cloud recordings from a Zoom meeting.
