Meeting Recording in Loom allows you to record, summarize, and share your Zoom, Google Meet, and Teams meetings so that your team can get up to date in seconds and stay focused on your real work.
This feature is available on any Loom subscription plan, but we recommend a plan with AI to get the most of out of Meeting recording in Loom!
In this article you can find how to do the following:
- Connect your Calendar
- Configure Meetings Settings
- Share Meeting recordings and recaps
- Manually enable Meeting Recordings
Connecting your Calendar
In order to use the Loom Meeting Recording functionality, you will need to connect your calendar.
-
Navigate to the Meetings page
As a logged in user in your Loom workspace, click on the “Meetings” Tab in the left-hand sidebar. -
Connect your calendar
A modal will appear and walk you through the steps to authenticate to your Calendar to allow the integration.
Note: Users who do not have recording capabilities in the workspace will not have access to Meeting Recordings in Loom and will not see the Meetings option in the right hand sidebar. If you'd like this functionality, ask an admin on your workspace for a Seat.
Configuring your Meeting Recording settings
Once you have connected your calendar, you will get prompted to configure initial default settings that will apply to all meetings by default (these can always be adjusted at an individual level, too):
Auto Record
By default, internal meetings will be set to auto-record. You will be able to choose whether to auto-record internal meetings and external meetings with a toggle for each:
- Internal meetings are meetings you own with only people within your workspace’s email domain.
- External meetings are meetings that include at least one person outside your workspace’s email domain.
Upcoming meetings will display a toggle to indicate the current recording setting. Any meetings that match your auto-record selection will automatically be toggled on, and you can choose to toggle them off to not record.
Recording and Recap sharing settings:
By default, internal meetings will be shared with meeting invitees. You can adjust the auto-record settings for both internal and external meetings as needed and access these default settings anytime by clicking Recording Settings from the Meetings page.
This will include auto-record settings and default sharing settings for new recordings. Keep in mind that regardless of the defaults you set, per-meeting sharing settings can also be adjusted on your Meetings page next to each meeting listed.
Please Note
- If your meeting platform (Zoom, Google Meets, Teams) has any settings enabled restricting who can join your meetings, this may cause Loom Notetaker to be unable to join and record your meeting. We recommend ensuring that Loom Notetaker is allowed through any such restrictions that might be in place!
- Loom meeting recordings cannot be downloaded.
Sharing Meeting Recordings and Recaps
By default, the person recording the meeting will be the Owner of the recording.
The recording will be automatically saved into your Library, and shared per your sharing settings (see below), but you are always able to move the recording into a location (folder or space) of your choice!
Meeting share settings can be customized so that the recording is only shared with the people you choose.
Sending Meeting Recaps
Meeting Recap emails contain AI-generated summaries with a link to the Meeting Recording, and by default email recaps will only be sent to internal invitees - those whose email domain matches the Workspace’s.
In your meeting’s share settings, you can pre-select who will receive the meeting recap email once the meeting concludes.
Slack notifications
Meeting Recordings will conform to the Slack notification behavior that any other Loom video would! You can learn more about Loom Slack notifications + more here.
Manually enabling Meeting Recording
If you are in a meeting that has already started, you can still record it by hitting the 'Record Now' button from the Meetings page and entering the meeting’s invite link.
This includes meetings that you do not own/organize. You can record any meeting on your calendar that has a Zoom, Google Meet, or Teams video call link attached to it, and the built-in notifications during the meeting that announce the Loom Notetaker recording the meeting will occur. Keep in mind that even if you start recording, the host of the meeting can remove the Loom Notetaker from the meeting to stop the recording at any time.
