Save Teams Meeting Recordings Locally
Is it possible to save Teams Meeting recordings locally instead of in Stream?
- Jan 23, 2020No, that is not possible. Teams will record in a azure service and then encode and upload to Stream.
You could download the file from Stream and save somewhere locally.
Skype for business recorded locally but the problem there were that the person recording could not leave the meeting and sometimes the encoding didn't work so I think it is good that Teams uses recording service in azure.

Thanks LinusCansby . We've been testing recordings and at some point, we had users who received the attached message after recording. Though the meeting notes a recoding failed message, they could click download and it saved the recording locally, and the recording was playable. I'm trying to figure out what setting we had so that worked.

I’ve seen this once before too. It seems that the teams recording service couldn’t ‘push’ the file to steam for whatever reason.
Only once, so it must be some transient issue. - LinusCansbyJan 23, 2020MVP
Second time I see that message this week here, some bug maybe? The recording will be downloaded from a Teams service running in Azure, it is in that service that the meeting is recorded. When you stop the recording the recording should be encoded and uploaded from the teams recording service in Azure to Microsoft Stream and it is that that fails for you.
Make sure that users have a license for Microsoft Stream and that it is activated for them.
