In Microsoft Teams, you are able to record your Teams meetings or calls to capture audio, video, and screen sharing activity. The recording happens in the cloud, and is saved to Microsoft Stream, so you can share it securely across your organization. You can also download the video in an MP4 format to share the video with other users.
