How To: Require Students to Register to View Zoom Recordings

Description

When you set up Zoom meetings through Blackboard, recordings will automatically be made available to students within your Blackboard site after the recordings have finished processing. Zoom’s On-demand registration feature can help you to limit recording viewing to only those students whom you approve to view the recording. The steps below will walk you through setting up the On-demand recording feature.
