Teams Premium + Bookings : Automatic recording and transcription for Bookings meetings ?
Hello, I have a Teams Premium license, recording and transcription policies are enabled on the admin side, and Video Recap works correctly when both are active simultaneously in the same meeting. My use case : my clients book time slots via Microsoft Bookings. Teams meetings are therefore created automatically by Bookings and I have no control over their scheduling. According to Microsoft Learn documentation (https://learn.microsoft.com/microsoftteams/virtual-appointment-meeting-template and https://learn.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/bookings/bookings-overview), there is no documented mechanism to automatically apply a Teams meeting template, and therefore automatic recording and transcription, to meetings generated by Bookings. My question: has anyone found a workaround for this limitation (Power Automate, Graph API, or anything else)? And does Microsoft have a documented roadmap on this topic? This gap directly prevents Teams Premium users from accessing Video Recap on their client meetings, which is one of the core use cases Teams Premium is designed for. Thank you for your help
Meeting Recordings - Who is the owner now?
Microsoft’s recent change to Teams meeting recordings has been more disruptive than expected! Originally, the update was supposed to shift the ownership of recordings from the person who pressed “record” to the meeting organizer’s OneDrive, starting in June 2024. But now that it’s here, it’s causing some real workflow headaches. Previously, I could record a meeting, edit it in Stream, trim unnecessary parts, update transcriptions, add chapters, adjust the expiry date, and then organise and share the recording as needed. Now, that flexibility is gone. The recording ends up in the organiser’s OneDrive, which might be inaccessible, especially if they didn’t attend the meeting or if it’s tied to a service account. This has turned into a game of tracking down who owns the recording just to make simple edits or share it. While Microsoft did introduce a temporary PowerShell policy to revert ownership back to the recording initiator, this fix only lasts for three months before it defaults back to the organiser. That’s not exactly a long-term solution. I can understand why Microsoft made this change—there have been issues with access when the recording initiator leaves the team or when confusion arises over ownership. But forcing this on users without a choice has thrown a wrench into many people’s workflows, mine included. There’s been a lot of pushback on this decision, with discussions in local tech communities I am part of, Microsoft Community Answers Forums, and Reddit echoing similar frustrations. Hopefully, the team responsibility for Teams development takes a page from Marc Mroz and the guys over at Microsoft Stream’s playbook, listens to the community, and brings back some much-needed flexibility. This kind of change should be a choice, not a hard-coded rule. For now, there is a temporary fix for this if you use PowerShell to connect to MS Teams and run the following command: Set-CsTeamsRecordingRollOutPolicy -Identity Global -MeetingRecordingOwnership RecordingInitiator If you run this it will put things back to how they were with the Recording Initiator being the owner of the file, however it looks like this will only hold in place for 3 months and then the change will be forced. This gives you some time to re-educate and let people know this change is coming, or perhaps time for enough people to push back to Microsoft and allow this to be a choice. This is a modified version of the script available here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/teams/set-csteamsrecordingrolloutpolicy?view=teams-ps which allows you to make a new policy, but does not tell you how to apply said policy. By running against "Global" it makes this change for everyone. You can also check what policy you have by running: Get-CsTeamsRecordingRollOutPolicy Hope this helps #BeExcellentToEachOther
Teams meeting recording on Stream - save in Teams channel without than downloading and uploading
I want to save the Teams meeting recording to a Teams channel. The recording is currently in the chat but I would rather have the link in the channel or be able to move it rather than having to download and then upload. Am I being unreasonable? thanks!
Microsoft Teams recordings not showing up in chat
I had my chat disabled for my class meeting that I recorded earlier today. After the meeting, the recording was no where to be found. I ended the meeting for all and it normally shows up almost immediately in the chat. I also checked Streams and nothing is there. I'm wondering if this is because I disabled the chat feature during my meeting? Can you help me locate the recording?
Video recordings error
Good day, Please Help! I conducted a study on MS Teams and recorded the sessions. I downloaded the recordings after each session and just opened them to make sure they are playing and that it is the correct length. Never checked anything else. Now when I wanted to play the full videos, only half of the video is working and the rest is an error. The video stops and restarts for example. It happened on 2 or 3 of the videos and the strange aspect is that the recordings were scheduled weekly. Now, a month after the sessions, the download link on the meeting is expired and I checked One Drive and Stream if it might be saved there but it is not. So I am in a bit of a panic - I need these recordings as proof for my study.
A problem with Teams recording
Yesterday, I used Teams to record a proctoring video. When I ended the recording and returned to the chat module, Teams showed that recording failed to upload to Stream. I tried to find this video in the stream, but I didn't find it. This video is very important to me. Where can I find this video?
Teams Recording Sharing
Hi, Is it possible to disable at an organisation level the Share feature for meetings recordings? We have had a few instances where recordings have inadvertently been made available to the whole organisation where the content of those meetings should've remained hidden. We suspect this is because users have clicked share but failed to read the warning that this makes that recording available to everyone. We like the Organisation-wide check-box but would prefer that it requires someone to physically go and set that in Stream as it's then an intentional act. Kind regards, RichardSecurity considerations when recording meetings
Our Board of Directors have started using Teams for Board meetings, and they have requested information about how recordings are being managed and stored. They need to 100% sure that only meeting participants have access to the recordings and that, when the recoding is deleted, it is in fact completely deleted - in an unrecoverable fashion. So I am looking for detailed documentation and any information you guys can provide. Thanks.
