Frequently asked
How do I record a Zoom meeting?
To record a Zoom meeting, you can use Zoom's built-in recording (which the host has to allow) or capture it with a screen recorder, which works for any call you're in without needing host rights.
Zoom's own recording is the simplest option if you're the host or have been granted permission, but a screen recorder gives you the same result when you don't have those rights. You record the meeting window like any other part of your screen.
With Sirvez, a free Chrome extension, record your whole desktop or the Zoom tab and capture system audio along with your microphone, plus an optional webcam overlay. Recordings save to your browser first, with no watermark or time limit. Always get the participants' consent and follow the recording laws where you are before capturing a call.
