Activate / Deactivate Recording
Depending on your needs, and only if it's useful for your business - for example, to broadcast the webinar to people who weren't able to attend - activate recording. Be aware that recording the webinar consumes storage resources. Think about our planet. In this case, the recording will start when you click on "Start broadcast" and end when you click on "Stop broadcast".
You can choose to enable or disable recording during the webinar creation. However, you can also activate or deactivate recording by editing the webinar.
Note: When you start broadcasting, you can still activate recording if you hadn't done so earlier and find it beneficial for your work. Learn more.
