Viewing and Managing Recordings

Instructors

To view and manage recordings of WebEx web conferences, instructors must start in the WebEx section of their Canvas course. Click the "Event Recordings" tab.

You will then see a list of the recordings (if any exist) from the Canvas course. Click the “View Recordings” button to the right of the session’s name to play it back. Use the gear wheel icon to the left to delete a recording.

Recordings of WebEx web conferences have 3 versions: streaming online, an MP4 video file that can be downloaded, or an .arf format that is a proprietary format from Cisco WebEx. You must download and install a free piece of software from Cisco WebEx, the Webex ARF player, in order to play back .arf recordings.

So when you click to view a recording, you'll have more than one option to play it back.
