I wanted to know if, from the free tier of a meeting app, I can access the local recording function and when finished I can download the recording, thank you ---

@arkangel.contreras local recording is available for free / basic tier of zoom. Since it is on the user’s computer, you will need to write your own program to upload the recording to somewhere, and thereafter download it. ---
