Lecture recordings with Microsoft Teams and Panopto

For staff on how to use Panopto in Microsoft Teams, map Teams recordings to Panopto folders, and move Teams recordings to Panopto.
  • The integration of Teams and Panopto works best on the desktop version of Teams and is not currently available for mobile devices.
  • You can webcast and record lectures and other sessions directly in Panopto. 
  • See also how to Add a Teams meeting link in Moodle.

Connect the Panopto App to your Teams account

Follow these steps to enable your Teams recordings to go to Panopto. You only need to do this once.

You can then:

  • Move recordings from your Panopto 'Meeting recordings' folder to your paper folder after each session, or
  • Map a series of session recordings to the relevant Panopto folder.
  1. In your device, open the desktop version of Teams.

  2. If you don't see the Panopto icon at the left of your Teams screen, select the ellipsis (3 dots).

  3. In the pop-up window, right-click on Panopto, then select Pin.

    Note: If Panopto is not in the apps list, enter 'Panopto' in the Search for apps box.
  4. At the left of your Teams screen, select the Panopto icon. 

  5. If prompted, log in with your university credentials or select the Sign in button. 

  6. At the top left of the Teams Panopto screen, select Settings. 

  7. Select Authenticate.

Map a Teams meeting to a Panopto folder

Follow these steps to map Teams session recordings to a Panopto class folder. Recordings will automatically move to the folder when they are complete and be available for your students. 

  • You first need to link your Teams account in the Teams Panopto app as above. 
  • The mapping tool looks for your meeting Title, so you need to create unique titles for your sessions, e.g. include the paper code, day of the week, and time of lectures.
  • You only need to do this mapping once for each recurring meeting. 
  • Recordings for unmapped sessions are saved to the Meeting Recordings folder in your Panopto MyFolder.

  1. Select Panopto in your UoW Teams app.

  2. If prompted, select Sign in. You can now minimise the Panopto landing page and return to the Panopto screen in Teams.

  3. In the Teams Panopto app, select the Settings tab. 

  4. Select + New Mapping. 
  5. In the New Mapping pop-up window, enter the Meeting Title.
    Note:
    Panopto uses the exact title in your calendar to find your recordings. A wildcard is available.
  6. Enter your Folder name or choose it in the drop-down list, then select Add. 

Move a meeting recording from Teams to Panopto

Follow these steps if you recorded in Teams without enabling the Teams Panopto app. Your recording will be saved in Microsoft Streams. You can download it, then upload it to Panopto.

  1. In the Teams desktop app (see step 1 above), select Calendar.
  2. Select your meeting, then select the arrows at the top right corner to maximise the pop-up window. 
  3. At the top of the meeting screen, select Recap. 

    Note:
    On smaller screens, select +[number] to display the full menu.
  4. If you made more than one recording, select the relevant tab above the recording (Part 1, Part 2, etc.), then at the top right of the recap window, select Open in Stream. 
  5. Above the recording, select Download. 
  6. Find the recording in your Downloads folder, then Upload to Panopto
