Clicking Edit will allow you to change the default name of your recording as well as configure who has access to view your recorded Class Session. Please note that changing who has access to view your recording will only affect the shared link to the recording.

• Public – Anyone who has access to the link can view the recording
• Instructors, assistants and students – Instructors, students, TA’s & staff such as Program Assistants can view the recording. They must access this from inside their learning hub course the learning hub
• Instructors and assistants – Only Instructors can view the recording. This option’s name is misleading because students, TAs and staff cannot view the recording if this option is selected
