  1. How do I enable user logins to access the portal?

      Go to the user profile page of each user and enable the login toggle. Once enabled, login credentials are emailed.

User Licenses

  1. How do I assign licenses to users, or change the licenses already assigned?

Administrators can manage licenses from the user profile page. When assigning licenses to users, it is important to remember that a user’s license determines the features that others can apply to their recordings. 

Playback 

  1. How long does it take for recordings to appear in the portal?

Recordings will appear within a few minutes (at most) of the call ending.
  1. Why can’t I see the recordings of another user even though I am an administrator?

To be recorded, users need to be assigned a license. If a user's playback network is set to Myself, users will only have access to their own recordings. A user's playback network can be extended by their administrator by editing their playback network from the perimssions window of the user profile. Extend via groups by adding groups, and via people by selecting:
  1. My Direct Reports: User’s own recordings & direct reports.
  2. My People:  User’s own recordings, direct reports and indirect reports.
  3. My Organization: User's own recordings and recordings of all other recorded users in their playback network. For super administrators this would include all playback users in the organization. 
The default playback network of administrators is set to My Organization. 
  1. How can a user’s playback network be extended to access the recordings of other users?

A user’s playback network can be extended via People or User Group from the permissions page of the user’s profile by their administrator. 

Pause, Resume & Discard Recordings

  1. How can I manually pause, resume or discard recordings in progress?

Download & Share

Time limited links to recordings can be shared via the built-in mail function. The recording remains securely stored within the portal.
  1. Can recordings be downloaded in bulk?

Bulk download of recordings is currently not available. Users can download individual recordings from the portal.

Sentiment

  1. How does the sentiment analysis work? Who decides which words are positive, negative and neutral?

Sentiment is determined by referencing words from the transcription against a pre-determined set of words associated with each sentiment.

Notification Rules

  1. I have applied a notification rule to a user group and I am not seeing notifications for some members of the group. Why is this?  

Notification rules are only applied to users with an ultimate license. If you have applied a notification rule to a group, and some members of the group do not have an ultimate license, notifications will not be created for these members. Administrators can check licenses allocated to users in Settings > System Settings > Users.  

User Recording Policy

  1. What is the default recording policy?

The default recording policy is to record all meetings/calls of recorded users. A user’s recording policy can be edited from the user profile page.
  1. Is there a choice as to which calls are recorded?

Recording policy can be set by call direction (dialed and received) and call relation (internal and external).
  1. Can I set up a recording policy to manage what calls will be recorded?

A recording policy can be set for individual users by their administrator.
  1. Can I prevent internal Teams meetings from being recorded?

No. A recording policy can only be created for users. From the user profile page, a recording policy can be set by call direction (dialed and received) and/or call relation (internal and external).
  1. Why don’t I have the option to create a recording policy from within the user profile page?

The portal is synched every 4 hours. Once new users are synced, the option to create a recording policy from within the user profile page will be available.
  1. How does the recording policy work when users with different policies are in the same call/meeting?

The recording policy is set for individual users. For example. if the recording policy of one user is set to record internal calls, the call will be recorded from the point that user joined the call, even if the recording policy of other users in the call is set not to record internal calls. However, the recording will only appear in the dashboard against the user whose policy was set to record internal calls. Other users will be labelled as participants of the call.

System-wide Recording Policy

  1. Can recordings be deleted?

Recordings can be deleted from within the system. Recordings can be found using inbuilt filters, such as date, time and CLI/Caller ID.

Microsoft Recording Policy

  1. What Microsoft recording policy modes are available? 

The following Microsoft recording modes are available: 
  1. Compliance: All calls are recorded, and users being recorded do not have the ability to pause, resume or discard recordings using the Analytics 365 Recording Client app. If the call cannot be recorded, the user will not be able to connect to the call.
  2. Convenience: All calls are recorded, and users being recorded have the ability to pause, resume and discard calls using the Analytics 365 Recording Client app. If the platform fails to record a call, users will still be able to connect to the call.
  3. On Demand: No calls are recorded by default. Users can select which calls to record using the Analytics 365 Recording Client app. They can also use the Analytics 365 Recording Client app to pause, resume and discard recordings.
  4. No Policy: Users are not recorded.

Recording Announcements

  1. Can I disable the audio announcement made to external parties in Teams calls informing them that the call is being recorded?

Yes. The Microsoft Global administrator can disable the Microsoft audio announcement from within the recording portal. Go to Settings < System Settings < Account Details. Click on the Platform Details link at the botton of the page and disable the recording audio notification for calls using the edit icon.

Storage

  1. Where is my data stored?

  2. By default, your data is stored within an Azure geo-redundant environment for the specified retention period. Content is backed up daily
  1. How long are recordings retained?

Recording licenses come with a set storage/retention period. Licenses with different storage/retention periods can be purchased and assigned to users. However, if the retention period required is less than the license provides, it can be decreased within the user profile page.

Security & Privacy

  1. Is redacted card payment data stored, and can it be retrieved?

Payment card information is not stored and cannot be retrieved. While a call is being recorded, call data is processed, but a recording is not stored, and the transcript of a call is not saved, until the call has been completed. Redaction of payment card details occurs before the recording has been completed and stored.  
  1. How does AI redaction of sensitive payment card data work?

Our recording platform uses AI to redact sensitive payment card data from recordings and transcriptions in support of PCI-DSS compliance. The system performs a surface-level scan of every call using pattern recognition techniques to detect sensitive card data, for example, keywords and numerical patterns resembling card numbers. When a match is recognised, highly precise contextual analysis and redaction is performed using a large language model. When redaction is complete, the recording is securely stored using PGP encryption in line with the recorded user’s storage management and retention policies.

Account Details 

  1. How can I check the license details for my organization?

The number of licenses purchased can be viewed from the Licenses page of System Settings.
  1. Can I check the Tenant ID for my account?

The Tenant ID can be viewed from the customer Platform Details page. Users with permission to manage System Settings can access this page from System Settings > Account.
