Before sharing the recording, we recommend managing people’s access. To do this, click “Share” on the top right on the screen and press “Manage access” from the drop-down menu that appears.

A pop-up box will appear, from here you are able to grant access to individuals or groups as well as create links. This means the video can only be seen by select people of your choosing.
