Auto Record and Upload
If you are teaching on Zoom we have created a feature that allows you to auto-record your class and upload it automatically from Zoom to your Recess on-demand library.
If you are using the Recess Zoom account follow the steps below. If you are using a Personal Zoom Account, please go to this article and ensure you have your personal zoom fully set up to use the auto-record feature, and then come back here.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Auto-record features will NOT appear for EVERYONE. The feature will only work for instructors using Recess Zoom or a Personal Zoom that is a paid account. This will not work with a Personal Zoom that is a free account or with Playground.
If you have already created live or private classes, you will need to go into the classes and select automatically record and upload for each class.
