Recording and transcribing Teams meetings properly

Turning on recording with transcription captures both a video or audio file and a searchable text transcript, which is genuinely useful for anyone who missed the meeting or wants to search back for a decision. Always tell attendees a meeting is being recorded — most regions require it, and it's simply good practice.

Coach's tip: set recordings to expire or auto-delete after a set period unless someone actively saves them, so you're not quietly accumulating a huge, unmanaged video archive.
