If you record a Zoom session, you can upload and edit it in YouTube. Follow these instructions and watch the video demo.

In this tutorial you will learn how to:

• Find a Recording

• Edit it in YouTube Studio

Find the Recording  (Video) File

1. Find the recording and if they are cloud recordings, download them to your computer
2. You will see 2 to 4 files for each recorded session:
   • Audio Only (.m4a) - the audio recording of the event only
   • Chat (.txt) - the chat text during the meeting
   • Transcript file (.vtt) 
   • Video file (.mp4) - this is the video file you can upload to YouTube.
