How to capture video for your Fireflies meetings?

Sometimes the most important part of a meeting isn’t what was said — it’s what was shown. Screenshares, demos, and slides often hold key context that transcripts alone can miss.

With Fireflies video capture, you can replay meetings with video, audio, and transcripts together, making it easy to revisit details and share full context with your team.

Let's get started🚀

🚀 Enable video recording for your meetings

Step 1: Log in to your Fireflies account and go to Settings from the main dashboard.

Step 2: From the left panel, click Recording & Privacy and under Recording, locate Capture meeting video.

Step 3: Toggle on Capture meeting video to start capturing videos for your meetings.

Once this setting is enabled, Fireflies automatically records the meeting video along with the audio and transcript, allowing you to watch the meeting again whenever needed.

⚙ Team-level video settings (Admins only)

If you’re a team admin, you can control video recording for everyone on your team from Team Settings. This helps you decide whether teammates can choose their own video settings or if video recording should be enforced (or disabled) for all meetings.

How to access team video settings

1. Navigate to Settings and switch to the Team tab.

   

2. From the left panel, click Recording & Privacy and under Recording, locate Capture meeting video.

   

3. From the dropdown menu, choose how meeting videos should be recorded for your team using the options below.

• Allow teammates to choose: Each teammate can decide whether to record meeting videos from their own settings.

• Enable for all teammates: Meeting videos are recorded for everyone on the team, and teammates can’t change this setting.

• Disable for all teammates: Meeting videos are not recorded for any teammate meetings.

  

5. Select the option you want for your team and your changes are saved automatically.

   

▶ Watch your meeting video

After your meeting ends and Fireflies finishes processing it, the video is added to the notepad.

To watch the meeting recording video:

1. Click on the Meetings tab from the left-hand menu to open your meeting notebook.

   

2. Find the meeting you want to watch by using the search bar or selecting a category such as My Meetings, All Meetings, or Channels.

   

3. Open the meeting you want to watch the video for by clicking on it to access the meeting.

   

4. Click on the Video button at the top of the meeting page to show or hide the meeting video while reviewing the transcript.
