Ensure you have a Business Standard, Business Plus, Enterprise, or Education Plus edition.

Get Admin Approval

Ask your Google Workspace administrator to enable recording for your account.

Join as Host

You must be the meeting organizer or be promoted to co-host to see the record button.

Wait for Processing
