Webex Recording Not Showing
Workaround available Windows, Mac, Web Updated October 21, 2026
Quick answer
A missing Webex recording was usually saved locally instead of to the cloud, is still processing, or your account doesn't have cloud recording enabled. Check your computer's Documents folder and the Recordings tab on your Webex site, and ask your admin if the Recordings tab is missing.
Most likely fix: Check where it was saved.
Symptoms

How to fix it
Try these in order — the most common fix is first.
1. Check where it was saved
- Look for an MP4 in your computer's Documents or the folder chosen when recording
- Then check Recordings on your Webex site
2. Wait for processing
- Cloud recordings can take a while after the meeting ends
- Check again later and look for the email notification
3. Ask your admin to enable recording
- If the Recordings tab is missing, your host account may not have it
- Contact your Webex site administrator
4. Remember the free plan limit
- Webex Free records locally only
- Cloud recording needs a paid or Enterprise license
