Download Zoom Cloud Recordings

You can download Zoom Cloud Recordings you made as a host from Zoom on the web.  Recordings are kept in the Zoom Cloud for 180 days for faculty and staff, and 120 days for students before recordings are automatically deleted.  The recordings will remain in trash for 30 days. Zoom will send an email notification 7 days prior to deletion from the trash.
