    In Microsoft Teams Free, meeting recordings are available from the meeting or call chat after the recording is processed.

    Steps:

    1. Open Teams.
    2. Open the Chat for the meeting or call.
    3. Look for the recording link in that chat.

    Supported locations and limits:

    • For recorded calls, the recording link appears in the Chat for that call.
    • Recordings are saved to OneDrive.
    • If external participants were in the meeting, they can’t view recordings unless the recording is shared with them.
    • If the meeting was organized by a Teams for work or school user and joined with a personal Teams account, the recording file is not available directly to the personal participant. Access must be requested from the meeting organizer.

    If the recording was for a channel meeting in Teams for Education, the link can also appear in the channel conversation, and the file is stored in the channel’s SharePoint Files > Recordings folder.

    When using Teams Free to record meetings, recordings are not saved to OneDrive, but are saved on the Cloud and are available for 30 days only.

    A link to the recording file should be available in the chat window from where the recording was initiated.
