Owners and admins of cloud recordings are able to specify what can be done with the recordings through their cloud recording management settings. In addition, users can enable, disable, or lock certain features, such as who can download recordings from the cloud, and who can share recordings from the cloud.
If you turn off cloud recording and lock that setting for your entire account, you will be able to disable all settings associated with recording management.
Note :
- It is also possible for a licensed host to enable or disable a setting within his or her own account if it is not locked.
- The licensees cannot change the settings that are locked and have to contact the account admins if they want to make any changes to those settings.
- Additionally, you can change the email notifications about cloud recordings.
