Zoom / Panopto: Customize Where Zoom Cloud Recordings are Saved in Panopto

By default all Zoom Cloud Recordings are found within a "Meeting Recordings" sub-folder of your “My Folder” in Panopto. You can also specify a different Panopto folder to add specific Zoom meeting recordings to automatically. 

For example, an instructor can set it so that students can access their recorded Zoom class meetings through their course in Brightspace.

To do this the instructor first needs the course’s Zoom meetings to be created. Zoom meeting ID(s) are needed for these settings. 

This image displays the course Tools menu with Panopt Recordings and Zoom Meetings circled on it.

You can set up Zoom meetings for a course by going into a course in Brightspace and using the Zoom Meetings option found at the bottom of the Course Tools menu. Students can then join those meetings from their course in Brightspace by also going to Course Tools > Zoom Meetings.

Zoom meetings IDs are needed for this process.

If you don’t already have meetings scheduled then you need to schedule a new recurring meeting for your class times first.  

Recurring meetings will all have the same Meeting ID. If you have different Meeting IDs for each meeting then each meeting ID needs to be added to the following Panopto settings.

If you already have meetings set up then you will need to copy the "Meeting ID" to paste it into the Panopto settings. 

 

This image displays the Meeting ID in a Zoom screen with the text "Drag your mouse over the numbers to select them. Then use CTRL+C to copy the selection. Other text on the image says "recurring meetings have the same IDs".

Now you will need to go into Panopto to add this meeting ID to settings in that system.

There are two ways to get into Panopto. Through Brightspace or its URL: https://binghamton.hosted.panopto.com
