Room Recordings

Accessing chat messages from meetings

Chat messages exchanged during a video room session are not included in the video recording itself. However, they are preserved and accessible to anyone who has access to the meeting room.

To view chat messages after a session, enter the same meeting room where the session took place. The chat sidebar will display the full history of messages shared in that room, across all sessions. This allows users to revisit shared links, comments, or discussions at any time, even if they didn’t attend the live meeting.

Sorting recordings

At the top left of the recordings list, you’ll find the sort button. Click it to organize recordings by date:

• Sort ↑: Displays recordings from oldest to newest.
• Sort ↓: Displays recordings from newest to oldest.
