Manage CarmenZoom Cloud Recordings

Once you have completed a cloud recording you can create a shared link to the recording or download the recording.

Please note that all cloud recordings are automatically deleted after 120 days. To keep recordings for long-term use, we recommend that you download your cloud recordings, then save them to another service such as Mediasite

UX Tip

If you made multiple recordings during a meeting session, you can share a link to view all of them or a specific recording from the session. The link provided in the Share menu at the top of the page will include all of the recordings. The Copy shareable link button next to each recording thumbnail provides a link to that specific recording.

Share cloud recordings

Clicking the Share button for your cloud recording will display the recording link information and all of the available sharing settings. These settings are honored for any recordings under the specified meeting session.

By default, CarmenZoom cloud recordings require authentication. This means that your recordings can only be viewed by other CarmenZoom account members, even with the shareable link. 

share recording menu

If a cloud recording needs to be shared with non-Ohio State viewers, you can adjust the Who can view drop-down menu to one of two other options.

  • Everyone with the recording link: Anyone with the recording share link can access the recording link. If selecting this option, you can still require a passcode in the Share Settings to increase security.
  • Only people you shared with below: Only the specified users—both CarmenZoom users and external users—can access the recording.

The Share with specific people field can be used even if you have selected Everyone with the recording link, as a way to share the recording with a user directly. Email addresses you enter will receive an email notification with a link to the recording.

UX Tip

If you have a secure way of sharing your cloud recording links, you can also disable the authentication requirement by changing your account settings.

Click Share Settings to access additional settings to help you manage what viewers can see and access.

  • Set expiration date: Allows you to set the number of days or a specific date when the link will expire for viewers. 
  • Viewers can download: Allows viewers to download the video in addition to viewing it online.
  • Viewers can see transcript: Allows viewers to see the audio transcript, if Zoom was able to create one. This option is selected by default on all CarmenZoom recordings.
  • Viewers need to register to watch: Requires users to enter their name and email address before viewing or downloading the recording. The host will be able to download a list of registrants.
  • Passcode: Requires users to enter a password before viewing or downloading the recording. After selecting this option, enter a custom passcode and click Save.
