Record Meet Google : You can record video meetings for other people to watch later. To record a meeting, a Google Workspace administrator must turn on recording for your account.
You can record if:
• You’re the meeting organizer
• You’re in the same organization as the organizer
• You’re a teacher signed in to your Google Workspace account, but not a student
IRecordings include the active speaker and anything that’s presented. Recordings are saved to the organizer’s Meet Recordings folder in My Drive. An email with the recording link is sent to the meeting organizer and the person who started the recording. The link is added to the Calendar event.
Other windows or notifications are not included. Pinning a participant won’t affect who is shown in the recording.
These people get notified when a recording starts or stops, but can’t control the recording:
• People outside of your organization
• Mobile app users
• People who dial in using a phone
If a participant turns on live captions during recording, the captions won't be recorded and don't open when you play the recording.

To create a new video meeting, log in to your existing Google Account or sign up for free.
Send a link or meeting code to anyone you want to join the meeting. For the free version of Google Meet, guests will need to create or sign in to an existing Google Account to join.
Tap the meeting link from the invite, enter the meeting code from your host here, or call into the meeting using the dial-in number and PIN in the invite.
Connect with anyone—coworkers, clients, classmates—as often as you'd like.
Invite up to 100 participants to a meeting. If you’re using the free version of Google Meet, anyone you invite will need to sign in with a Google Account to join the meeting for added security.
Follow along in real time with automated live captions powered by Google’s speech recognition technology. To turn on closed captions, click the three dots on the Meet screen to bring up the option (available in English only).
After clicking your meeting code or link, you can adjust your camera and mic and see how you look before entering the meeting. You’ll also get a preview of who has already joined the meeting.
Meet automatically switches the layout in a video meeting to display the most active content and participants.
To switch the layout, click the three dots in the lower corner of the Meet screen.
Anyone can easily pin, mute, or remove participants. For privacy reasons, you cannot unmute another person. Ask them to unmute their audio.
For education accounts, only the meeting creator can mute or remove others.
Individuals can host secure video meetings for free with Google Meet. Teams can use Google Workspace Essentials to get advanced Meet features plus Drive, Docs, Sheets, and Slides designed for business.
