How to record all participants during video conference
If you are the conference moderator who is allowed to manage server-side video recording, the best solution for you is to activate this type of recording. In this case, all conference participants will be included in the video because server-side recording ignores the restrictions which a participant may set on local recording.
Click on the ellipsis (three dots) icon during a conference in the meeting control panel and select the option Real-time meeting management in the context menu.
In the conference management pop-up, click on the ellipsis (three dots) icon and select the Recording option the context menu:

When recording is stopped, you will receive the corresponding notification.

To start local recording, click on the ellipsis (three dots) icon, and then select Video recording.
You can Record all conference participants (this option is selected by default), or click on this menu option and choose the participants who will be included in the video.
Please note that not all conference participants may be recorded; the result depends on the permissions for video recording set by each participant.
You will see the list of participants who may be recorded. Select the users you want to record and click Start Record.
