How to Record a Meeting

Before you begin recording a meeting, make sure you’re the meeting organizer or at least in the same organization as the meeting organizer. You can also be a teacher signed into their Google Workspace account.

Google Meet Recording Restrictions

Google Meet users who don’t have a paid Google Workspace account (formerly G Suite) can’t record meetings. The recording feature is available for all paid Google Workspace editions except the Business Starter edition. These include:

Rewatch and Share a Recorded Meeting

You can access recorded meetings from Google Drive. Go to the organizer’s My Drive, select Folders followed by the Meet Recordings folder, and then select the recording file to rewatch it in My Drive. You can also download the recording to your computer to rewatch it in better quality. Select the file, then select the three vertical dots followed by Download. To share the recording, select the file followed by the share icon and enter the recipients’ names or email addresses. Alternatively, select the link icon to copy and paste the link in an email or messaging app.
