Changes to Teams meeting recordings for EDU A1 & “Recording failed to upload to Stream” error
- Hi, 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"
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?
ChristianBergstrom We as of yet haven't had the need to set up anything for class recordings thankfully, but for staff meetings I have done the following:
- Downloaded the video from the staff team and named it appropriately.
- In my admin account on Stream, I have then created a new channel called Staff Meetings within the Team the video came from and then uploaded the video to that new channel.
- In the Team, I then create a new Stream tab that will then show the videos like a playlist.
Unfortunately we haven't been able to find a way to delete the video from the meeting message in the Teams, so that would still leave it there for students to download.
