    I don't have an article handy but can confirm that we currently only support Block Download for Office files.

     

    That being said, we are working on Block Download for other file types (as announced in the Sharing talk at Ignite last year) and you should keep an eye on Message Center for more news on that soon 🙂

     

    Thanks!

Hi cjescudero,

 

Today, the recording is uploaded to the Team channel so everyone on the team has Full Control, like they do on every file in the Team channel.

 

In the future though (exact date TBD, keep an eye on message center),

Recorders & organizers of the meeting can edit.

Members of the team channel can view only (and are blocked from downloading)

Owners of the team get full control.

 

Hope that helps!

Hopefully that future is not too far away. At our University there are many complaints from faculty because students (or any other attendees of the organization) have access to downloading the recording of a channel meeting in Teams.
