Recording a Teams Meeting
Teams meetings can be recorded by any presenter. By default, everyone in the meeting is listed as a presenter and has the ability to record.
Privacy Consent: When you begin recording a Teams meeting, the camera and microphone of participants will be muted until they consent to being recorded. If they do not consent, they will remain in the meeting with their camera and microphone disabled. They may use the Chat to communicate.
