There are a couple ways to start meetings using Google Meet. Two ways are outlined below. Generally, we recommend creating calendar invites with integrated Google Meet links so that all meeting invitees know where to start and join the meeting. | |||

== | == Record Meetings == | ||
Recording a meeting will save the video and chat records of the recorded meeting segment. Recording will not happen by default, so make sure to record a meeting at the beginning if you know you need to do it. If you are the '''''Meeting Host''''' then you are able to record the meeting. The recorded video and chat files will be saved in your Riverdale Google Drive account in the '''''Meet Recording''''' folder. | |||
# From a video meeting, at the bottom, click '''''Activities''''' (the button with a triangle, square, and circle) | |||
# Click '''''Recording''''' | |||
# Click '''''Start recording''''' | |||

Rest assured, the video and chat is saved. The chat history can be played back by using VLC Media Player. Reach out to the Tech Team if you have questions about this. | |||
