Overview
Zoom and Panopto have developed an integration enabling the automatic transfer and publishing of Zoom recorded videos via Panopto. Panopto can also place the videos in the appropriate class folder, making them available to students via Blackboard.
Before this feature will work, you must have Cloud Recording enabled for your Zoom account. For instructions on how to enable this feature, please see KB article Configuring Zoom Account for Cloud Recording
There is no special configuration required in Panopto to use this feature. However, using the instructions below will simplify the delivery of recordings by letting Panopto know the folder that should be used to store the recordings from specific meetings (classes). Otherwise, Panopto will store all of the transferred Zoom recordings in the default 'Meeting Recordings' folder, and you will have to move them manually (see: Moving recordings in Panopto, below).

Before proceeding you will need to know the Meeting IDs of each of the Zoom meetings that you wish to have automatically placed.
