Download Zoom Recordings from the Cloud then Upload to My Media (Kaltura)

Although Zoom recordings are accessible from the cloud, easy access is limited to the course in which it was recorded and the Zoom storage space is not unlimited - eventually you will need to delete your Zoom cloud recordings.

Download your Zoom recordings from the Cloud and upload them to Kaltura for long term, unlimited storage which can be shared in any of your Canvas courses.
