Hey @momaiz.net, The user who you want to set auto recording for, must be at least a [Pro user](https://zoom.us/pricing): Please see the prerequisites here: > **[Cloud recording](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/203741855-Cloud-recording)** > > Note: Due to unusually high volume during the COVID-19 pandemic, cloud recordings may require extra processing time. > > Overview > Cloud recording is automatically enabled for all paid subscribers.
