Answer 1

Dear @HALLIDAY, Megan,

Good day. Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum!

I understand that you’re trying to locate and save a recording of a Teams meeting, and I am here to help you find it.

In most cases, after a meeting end in Microsoft Teams, the recording is available in the meeting chat or in the channel conversation if the meeting was held in a channel. For more detailed guidance, I recommend referring to this official Microsoft Support article: Record a meeting in Microsoft Teams - Microsoft Support. It provides helpful instructions for viewing recordings on both desktop and mobile apps.  In some cases, you might encounter a situation like the following example:

You can usually find the meeting record by expanding the conversation thread where the meeting took place.  

Additionally, if your organization uses OneDrive for storing recordings, the default location is typically the "Recordings" folder within your OneDrive. 

Only the meeting organizer can download the meeting recording.

To download a meeting recording:

1. Select the Shared tab in a meeting chat or channel.
2. Find and select the meeting recording.
3. Select More options > Download

If you are the recording owner:

1. Go to OneDrive
2. Open the Recordings folder
3. Select the recording
4. Click Download

I hope this information helps you locate your meeting recording. If you have any updates, additional context, or further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. 

Please understand 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 your understanding. I'm looking forward for your reply.

Answer 2

To locate a recording of a Teams meeting, follow these guidelines based on the type of meeting:

1. Meetings and Events: The recording is saved to the organizer's OneDrive in the Recordings folder, regardless of whether the organizer attended the meeting.
2. 1:1 and Group Calls: The recording files are saved to the OneDrive account of the user who initiated the recording.
3. Channel Meetings: The recording is stored in the SharePoint Teams site documentation library under a folder named Recordings.
4. Shared Mailbox Scheduled Meetings: If a meeting is scheduled using a shared mailbox, the recording is uploaded to the OneDrive of the co-organizer or recording initiator if the shared mailbox does not have a OneDrive account.

To save the recording, users with full edit rights can change the permissions and share the recording as needed after it is saved in the appropriate location.
