If you have Zoom Phone activated on your account, you can use the Zoom client to view your call history, including missed and answered incoming calls and outgoing calls. If you enabled contacts integration, you can also create a new contact from a call history entry.
Notes:
- Use the Zoom web portal to view call history and recordings if you need to filter calls by date or contact.
- If your admin granted you access to another phone user's recording, you can only access these call recordings using the Zoom web portal.
- By default, only admins can access your automatic recordings. If you don't see your automatic recordings, ask your admin to grant you access.
- By default, you can play, download, or delete your own ad hoc recordings (recordings started using in-call controls). If you don't see your recordings, ask your admin to grant you access.
- Call history and recordings are synced between the Zoom desktop client and mobile app. This includes the notification icon (red circle icon). For example, if you play a new call recording in the desktop client, it will also remove the notification icon on the mobile app.
