Introduction

Enabling Zoom recording and transcription features for your organization allows Fabius to automatically ingest and analyze all recordings for existing and future users. This guide will walk you through the process of configuring these settings, ensuring that your team can make the most of Zoom's recording capabilities.

Step-by-Step Guide: Configuring Zoom Recording and Transcription

Step 1: Accessing Admin Settings

1. Log in to your Zoom account (your account type must be a Admin or Owner)

2. Locate the Admin section on the left navigation panel (below the Personal section)

3. If you don't see the Admin panel, verify that you have the necessary administrative permissions.

Step 2: Navigating to Account Settings

1. In the Admin panel, expand the Account Management section.

2. Within the expanded dropdown, select Account Settings.

Step 3: Configuring Recording Settings

1. In the Account Settings page, scroll down to the Recording section.

2. Enable the following options:

   • Cloud Recording: Toggle this option on if it's not already enabled.

   • Create Audio Transcript: Enable this feature to generate text transcripts of your recordings.

   • Automatic Recording: Under "Record in the Cloud," enable this option.

     • Best Practice: Allow the host to pause/stop the auto-recording in case participants request it.

Step 4: Setting Up Retention Policies (Optional)

To manage your Zoom storage efficiently, consider enabling automatic deletion of recordings:

• Locate the option "Delete cloud recordings and transcripts after a specified number of days".

• Enable this feature and set your desired retention period.

• This helps prevent exceeding your Zoom account's storage limit.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues while configuring these settings:

1. Ensure you have the necessary administrative permissions for your Zoom account.

2. Double-check that you're in the correct Account Settings page, not personal settings.
