Delete meeting recording thumbnail

Hi, 

 

i know how to delete recording on OneDrive or SharePoint from MS Teams meetings. but when i delete a record i which to also delete the meeting recording thumbnail posted at the chat or channel. 

 

i have not found any way to do this, is this possible ?

 

if i click one thumbnail from  deleted record, i get an error message that the video is not accessible which can be since video no longer exist OR don´t have permissions to the video. which is confusing when i do not know if that video does in fact been deleted.

    ChristianBergstrom that's how it's always been.

     

    Teams admins can control whether Owners can delete messages at a user level through the messaging policy.

    Teams Owners can control whether they can delete messages on a per Team basis, the same setting as they can change under Manage Team, Setting, Member Permissions.

  • Hello, pretty sure you can't delete the "recording icon". Unfortunately I can't test it myself to give you a straight answer as I'm in transition. 

     

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/teams/set-team?view=teams-ps 

    -AllowOwnerDeleteMessages

    Setting that determines whether or not owners can delete messages that they or other members of the team have posted.

      Hi ChristianBergstrom,

      thanks for the idea, i know that which is only available in a team, so id does not a apply fro Meeting group chats.

      unfortunately the recording thumbnail post is not included on that setting. so it does not work on a team. one can delete all other post BUT the recording thumbnail within a team

        DanielHerrera Hello again, it feels like they have changed something in the docs and it doesn't seem right.

         

        I'm pretty sure the descriptions haven't looked like this before:

         

        -AllowOwnerDeleteMessage (in the Messaging policy)
        Determines whether owners are allowed to delete all the messages in their team. Set this to TRUE to allow. Set this to FALSE to prohibit.

        https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/skype/set-csteamsmessagingpolicy?view=skype-ps 

         

        -AllowOwnerDeleteMessages (in the Team policy)

        https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/teams/set-team?view=teams-ps 

        Setting that determines whether or not owners can delete messages that they or other members of the team have posted.

         

        My interpretation of the above is that by using the former policy you set it on a user and that setting will follow that user to all the teams where the user is an owner. And the latter you only set on a team so it only affects the owners of that team.
