Recording and sharing videos in posts and comments

Recording and sharing videos in posts and comments

Feature availability


Overview  
Zoho Connect allows you to record your screen using Quartz and share the recording directly in posts and comments. Whether you want to demonstrate a process, explain a feature, share a tutorial, or report an issue, screen recordings help you communicate information more clearly.

With Quartz, you can show what is happening on your screen instead of explaining every step through text. This makes it easier for your colleagues to understand instructions and follow discussions.

InfoYou can record screen up only up to five minutes.

  3. In the pop-up, review your recording settings and click Start recording.



  4. Choose the screen or window you want to record and click Share.

  6. Stop the recording once you finish.

NotesYour screen recording will be included in the post, allowing other members with access to view it. Also, while recording your screen, you can also record yourself using your camera. You can turn the camera on or off at any time without interrupting the screen recording.
Additionally, you can also record and attach screen videos in the comments.
