Record button

Question

I do not have the option to record. How can I add the record option to Teams? I checked everywhere, but I do not see it.

Dear @YuNeka,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A Forum.

I understand you are having trouble finding the Record button in Microsoft Teams. The ability to record meetings and calls is controlled by several factors, which are typically managed by your organization's IT administrator. To help us determine why the option is missing for you, could you please provide the following information?

• Are you trying to record a scheduled meeting (with multiple people)?
• Are you trying to record a one-on-one call?
• Are you using the Teams Desktop Application or the Teams Web Browser?
• What kind of account is this? Is it a Work/School account (managed by an organization's IT department) or a Personal account (e.g., Outlook.com, Live.com)?
• Do you know what Microsoft 365 license you are currently assigned (e.g., Business Basic, E3, A5, etc.)?
• Are you the IT administrator for your organization, or are you a standard end-user? (If you are an end-user, the solution will require contacting your administrator).
• Could you please provide a screenshot of your meeting interface when the meeting or call has started? Please ensure the three-dot menu (... More) is open in the screenshot, as this will clearly show which options are available or grayed out for you.

Once I have this context and the screenshot, I can provide a more targeted solution or guide you on the specific policy setting your administrator needs to check. Please note that our initial response does not always resolve the issue immediately. However, with your help and more detailed information, we can work together to find a solution. Thank you for your patience and understanding. I'm looking forward to your reply.
