How To Edit Your Zoom Recording in the Cloud
January 26, 2021
The edit feature for cloud recordings in Zoom is helpful if you want to control where a recording starts and ends.
This tutorial will walk you through the steps of editing a Zoom recording you have saved to the cloud. The steps below are only applicable if you have a paid Zoom account AND you opted to save your recording to the cloud as opposed to saving it to your computer. Note that you can only edit where the recording begins and ends. Also, you can test your handiwork by grabbing the share link and pasting it into an incognito window in Chrome or a private window in Safari.
Step 1 – Log in to Zoom.us with the same credentials you use for your locally installed instance of Zoom.
Step 2 – Go to the Recordings Section.
Step 3 – Choose the recording that you’d like to edit by simply clicking on the recording name.
Step 4 – Click on the recording thumbnail.
Step 5 – Click the scissors icon.
Step 6 – Adjust the sliders on the left and right side to mark where you’d like the recording to begin and end.
