What can I auto record?
Hi all,
I need to enable automatic recording for all Teams call and meetings, is this possible? I have seen conflicting info on the recording of calls/meetings/events.
I just need it all recording.
Any tips would be great, thanks.

Matt Cox Hello, sorry for the late reply. It seems as if your own understanding is correct about the policy-based recording and third-party.
Can't say what happened to the info I saw before about an eventual meeting option. There's nothing in Message center and nothing in the roadmap either. Could it be a privacy thing perhaps as you at some places legally need to get everyone's permission before you can record them? But that goes for the former option as well so I haven't go a clue to be honest.
There are plenty UV requests though! This is the one with most votes Automatic recording meetings – Microsoft Teams UserVoice
And just to put it out there, you are aware of the policy settings which control who can actually press the record button in a meeting/call?
- User has CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -AllowCloudRecording setting set to true in order to record meetings and group calls
- User has CsTeamsCallingPolicy -AllowCloudRecordingForCalls setting set to true in order to record 1:1 calls
Matt Cox Hi, I believe you're talking about this? Introduction to Teams Policy-based Recording for Calling & Meetings - Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Docs but I have no experience from it.
Thanks ChristianBergstrom
I have had a read and it appears to be saying I cannot enable mandatory recording at a tenant level for all users without the use of an external recording bot. Can anyone confirm I am correct on this?
It seems strange that the button to record calls and meetings is available for the end user but cant b e stipulated by admin!?
Compliance recording is a solution for organisations that have a legal requirement to retain conversations. Microsoft provide an interface that allows third parties like Verint, Smarsh etc. to retrieve a recording of all calls and meetings for designated users. It would be nice for Microsoft to have this kind of call retention system, but they don't, and I think the logic is that most customers with this requirements will already have a preferred platform.
Teams recording is something for the owner of a meeting, they are stored in that users OneDrive or the Team (for channel meetings). It wouldn't be appropriate for retention, as it's not stored somewhere more useful.
