Record Media Files

Record a media file directly in your browser for use wherever Media Files are supported. For the best results, sit in a quiet room and speak into the microphone clearly and at a consistent volume. There is no time limit; however, final recordings must be less than 10 MB.

  1. Go to Business Cloud > Media Files.

  2. Click [New Recording] in the top right.

  3. If prompted, allow the browser to use your microphone.
