Zoom Recording Management

 

 

Union College has a finite amount of cloud storage for your Zoom recordings. As a result, faculty and staff Zoom cloud recordings are retained on a rolling 120 day basis. Student Zoom cloud recordings are retained on a rolling 7 day basis. FInd out how to download your recordings from the cloud to save them locally, and then delete your recordings from the Zoom cloud storage.

 

 

NOTE: Files in the trash do not count toward your cloud recording storage and will be permanently deleted in 30 days.
