[Write-up] Making Zoom Recordings Available During the Freezing Period
If you want students to access class recordings during their subscription freezing period, ensure the following settings are configured correctly.
Important Notes
- The video recordings must remain available in your Zoom account during the freezing period if you are streaming recordings directly from Zoom.
- By default, watching a recording can trigger a check-in if the student did not originally attend the class.
- A new check-in during the freezing period will automatically unfreeze the student's subscription.
How to Allow Recording Access Without Unfreezing the Subscription
To prevent recordings from triggering attendance/check-ins:
- In the admin.practicenow.us
- Click on Classes
- Click on Zoom Recording Settings
- Disable the option: "Automatically add check-in..."
- Click on Update
Once this setting is unchecked:
- Students can watch the recording even if they did not attend the live session.
- Watching the recording will not create a check-in.
- Their subscription will remain in the frozen state.
