On-demand recordings for Zoom Events hubs give event organizers the option to offer users the option to watch the recordings of events at their convenience. Recordings that can be viewed, published, managed, and logged within a hub’s library are available on-demand for hosts and event organizers to use.

This allows users to access recordings without having to register for the event at first, gives users the option of viewing recordings even if they missed the live event, and helps event organizers with knowledge sharing and content marketing by allowing them to view recordings without registering for the event at first. You are able to manage your on-demand recordings as a Zoom Events license holder by logging into Zoom Events.
