The simplicity of the Groups membership model makes it easy to understand, but sometimes its lack of granularity is regrettable and forces change, such as the introduction of private channels in Teams to support confidential access to resources for a subset of team members.

This is important because the Microsoft 365 Groups access model which underpins Teams dictates that team members have equal access to group resources. The person who schedules the meeting can still update meeting settings, but they are not the owner. Once someone uses the Teams calendar app or the channel calendar app to create a channel meeting, the team which owns the channel becomes the owner of the event. Channel Meetings are DifferentĬhannel meetings are treated differently. Organizations cannot override the assignment of permissions to meeting recordings or the way the permissions work.

The change is described in Microsoft 365 roadmap 70543. Only those with edit access to recordings can change the permissions to allow others to download the files. Everyone else is assigned view-only permission to the file.įigure 1: Permissions for a Teams meeting recording in OneDrive for BusinessĪ change due to roll out in early April and finish in June will block users with view-only permission from downloading the file.

In message center MC230505 (updated February 18), Microsoft makes the important clarification that the only person allowed to download a recording for a personal chat or meeting is the owner. In both cases, the MP4 files for the recordings are in the Recordings folder.

Recordings for channel meetings are stored in the channel folder of the document library in the SharePoint team site owned by the team.

Recordings for personal and group chats and personal (private) meetings are stored in the OneDrive for Business account of the user who starts the recording.

This wasn’t possible in Stream Classic, but it is now that Teams is adopting SharePoint-based sharing.Īfter you switch Teams meeting recordings to ODSP, new meeting recordings are not stored in Stream.

Don’t Discuss Sensitive Information in Channel Meetingsįollowing on from the change in timing for the general switchover of Teams meeting recordings from Stream Classic to OneDrive for Business and SharePoint Online (ODSP for short) to July 2021, Microsoft is leveraging SharePoint permissions to have better control access to recordings.
