APSU has limited cloud storage, and we need YOUR assistance to ensure that we never run out of space! Please review your Zoom cloud recordings and delete them where possible. Watch this short video to learn more about deleting entire recordings or specific files.

 Things to consider:

Is the recording not for a course or not something you are actively using, but something you want to keep?... Consider downloading the recording from Zoom.

What are you actually recording from each meeting?... Check your recording settings in Zoom.
