Where Microsoft Teams stores your recording

Teams doesn't keep recordings inside the app. For scheduled and one-off meetings, the file lands in the Recordings folder of the OneDrive of the person who pressed record. For channel meetings, it's stored in the team's SharePoint site under Documents → Recordings.

The fastest route: pick the cloud import option above, connect OneDrive, and select the recording — no download needed. You can also download the MP4 from OneDrive or SharePoint and upload it as a file.

Unlike the transcript Teams generates during a live meeting, this works on any recording after the fact, gives you an editable transcript with reliable speaker labels, and exports to TXT, DOCX or SRT.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I transcribe a Microsoft Teams meeting?

Connect OneDrive in the import box above and select the recording (Teams saves it to the recorder's OneDrive → Recordings folder), or upload the MP4 directly. You'll get a speaker-labelled transcript in minutes.

Where does Teams save meeting recordings?

Regular meetings go to the OneDrive of the person who started the recording, in a folder called Recordings. Channel meetings are saved to the team's SharePoint site instead.

Is this better than the built-in Teams transcription?

Teams' live transcript only exists if it was switched on during the meeting and is hard to reuse. Here you can transcribe any recording afterwards, edit the result, relabel speakers and export clean files.

Do I need admin rights to transcribe a recording?

No — you just need access to the recording file itself, either in your OneDrive or as a downloaded MP4.

How accurate is the transcript?

State-of-the-art speech AI handles accents, crosstalk and technical vocabulary well. Clear audio typically transcribes with near-human accuracy, and you can edit anything inline.

Is it free to transcribe Teams meetings?

Yes — there's a free daily allowance. Long recordings and heavy usage are covered by the paid plan.

Can I turn the meeting into notes automatically?

Yes. Once transcribed, one click generates a summary with decisions and action items, and you can query the meeting with AI chat.
