Microsoft Teams

Convictional uses video conferencing links in your calendar to take notes for your meetings. You do not need to install the Convictional Microsoft Teams application to use this feature. Simply connect your calendar and schedule an event to be recorded - we'll handle the rest.

Usage

Prerequisites

  • An active Microsoft Teams account

  • A Convictional account with meeting recording features enabled

  • Calendar integration configured in Convictional

Recording Meetings

Convictional's meeting bot will attend Microsoft Teams calls if you:

  1. Manually request recording for a calendar event which has a Microsoft Teams URL

  2. Have configured Convictional to record all of your meetings and have a meeting that uses Microsoft Teams

At the beginning of your Microsoft Teams meeting, Convictional's meeting bot will request to join the meeting - you just have to admit them to begin recording.

For more information about meeting recordings, see the Meetings page.

Screen-Recording Limitations

Convictional's meeting bot is unable to record application-sharing in Microsoft Teams, including

  • Microsoft Whiteboard

  • Powerpoint Live

  • Excel Live

However, the bot can record traditional sharing of screens, windows, and tabs.
