Access your recordings
When session recording is enabled by an admin (i.e., on an account-wide or per-device group basis), all screen-sharing support sessions are automatically recorded and stored on the Recordings page. You can browse recorded support sessions that occurred for all remote support agents, and download them for viewing within 90 days.
You can also select your user name in the top navigation and use the account drop-down menu to access the My Account page, Manage People & Devices (i.e., if your account has admin access), and Sign Out.
