Changes to Teams meeting recordings for EDU A1 & “Recording failed to upload to Stream” error
- Jan 07, 2021Hi, just send the link to them. They’ll know what to do.
For the record it’s the meeting policy that needs to be updated.
Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -Identity XXX -RecordingStorageMode "OneDriveForBusiness"
descapa_msft This really seems counter intuitive and a step back. DL a video from the cloud then re-upload to the cloud (Streams). Why not leave as is and make meeting recordings disappear after 21 days in Streams.
I really hope you reverse this decision, auto upload feature is one of the major features that made us as school use Microsoft teams instead of ZOOM.
EmileRec if you move to another license, such as A3 this will be available, would it be possible for the organisation to move users who need to record to this license?

Thanks Daniel, I have changed my license to A3 and yes the feature is back. However, A3 license is not available for free. So this may be a setback to some users. Personally, I do not expect everything to come free considering the quality of the product. But it must be on par with the competition.
This discussion brought up an interesting point. That all students actually have the ability to download the recordings onto their computers. There is currently no way to stop students from downloading the recordings. I'm not sure how many teachers actually know this. I think this is a big problem. I have spoken to MS support regarding this. They inform me that this is the current status and there is no way to stop attendees from downloading the recordings. Anyone has any workaround?
Thanks folks! This is am amazing community here!

garyang Thank you for confirming that there isn't a way to stop students downloading the videos, that was our (and I am pretty sure everyone's) main issue. I will pass this onto the head of our IT department who is also currently looking for a work around; if he finds something I will post it here.

Christir86 Hi Rachel, would you mind describing how you work with the meetings and recordings? Just trying to figure out the way of working to see what can be done at this point.
In another conversation I suggested that they (staff) perhaps could be more selective as who can start and record a meeting (using Teams meeting policy). And if applicable be more restrictive when scheduling meetings, such as do all need to be invited to this etc. If you apply a similar approach then you have selected individuals who can start a recording of the meetings and also manage the recording in Teams. Meaning they can download it and then upload it to Stream manually and set the appropriate permissions in Stream. Would that work?

@Daniel Escapa To be completely honest with you and I know its not your problem or concern, but we are a school in lebanon (hyperinflation, economic collapse, beirut disaster..) . With all whats going on, guess i will just manage it on A1.
Thank you for your time.
