Note: this includes all in-class recordings, Zoom course call recordings, uploaded recordings, “public” and “private” recordings.

For example:

Accessing Archived Recordings for a single course

Archived Panopto Recordings are accessible through Canvas.

To access them, first navigate to your old Canvas site that originally contained the recording. To access old Canvas sites, navigate to canvas.law.upenn.edu or browse by semester at mycourses.law.upenn.edu.

1. Navigate to your Canvas site and click on the Panopto Recordings link
2. To see archived videos, click the archived videos icon, or the text that reads “Show archived videos” Note: there may also be archived videos in the “Private Recordings” folder.
3. Find the video you want to restore and click “Restore from Archive”
4. The text below the video will indicate how long it will take to restore from the archive.
