## Recording a Meeting

All participants can record the audio of a Bluescape meeting. You can use it as a reference after a meeting or provide it to invitees who could not attend. After the meeting has ended, the meeting recording is saved as an .mp4 file in a workspace.

**Note:** The recording does not display video feed or screen share; it only captures audio.

To record a meeting:

1. Click :more_options: More options at the top-right of the meeting panel.

2. A context menu opens. Select **Record meeting**.

**Note:** When you start a meeting from **Bluescape Home** for the first time and belong to multiple Bluescape Teams, you receive a prompt asking you to select which Team you want to contain the meeting recording from a dropdown menu.

1. All participants are asked to give their consent to be recorded. If they do not consent, they automatically exit the meeting. For participants within Bluescape, the following pop-up message displays:  
&nbsp;  

2. A red dot appears at the top of the meeting panel to indicate that the meeting is recording and remains until you end the recording.

3. To end the recording, click the red dot icon.

4. A context menu opens. Click the **End recording** option.  
&nbsp;  

5. A dialogue box appears. Click **Confirm** to End Meeting Recording.  
&nbsp;  

You can also end the meeting to stop recording.

When the meeting is finished, a notification e-mail is sent to the participant who initiated the recording.

&nbsp;  
In addition, an .mp4 file of the meeting recording is created. If the meeting occurs from within a workspace, the recording is saved to a canvas within that workspace.

If the meeting occurs from **Bluescape Home** , the recording is saved as a canvas in the **Meeting Recordings** workspace. Bluescape automatically generates this workspace in the Team that you specified.

I enjoy using the recording feature to create a quick tutorial or message to other users in the workspace, who can view it when it’s convenient for them (in lieu of holding a meeting where I’m simply passing along instructions/call-to actions).
