Manually Upload a recording from your local computer

If you recorded your Zoom meeting to your local machine, you can upload the recording to your UNM Canvas course using My Media and share it by linking it using one of two methods provided on the Zoom Recordings and UNM Canvas page.

Note: This is not the preferred method or expected way to handle Zoom recordings in Canvas. For the preferred methods, please see Zoom Recordings and UNM Canvas.

  1. After the meeting has ended, Zoom will convert the recording so you can access the files. 

    Note: If you started and stopped recordings multiple times during a meeting, Zoom will convert those recordings as individual files.

  1. Once the conversion process is complete, the folder containing the recording files will open. 
     
    Note: By default, the audio/video file (MP4) will be named Zoom_0.mp4. The audio only file (M4A) is named audio_only.m4a.
