You can record any Teams meeting or call to capture audio, video, and screen sharing activity. The recording happens in the cloud, and is saved in either the meeting organizer's OneDrive OR in the meeting chat or channel conversation (if you’re meeting in a channel).
Note: Whiteboards and shared notes are not captured in the meeting recording.
