# zoom-rec-dl

Save Zoom cloud recordings to a local directory. A cross-platform video and audio download script.

## Requirements

- Windows, macOS, and Linux - any operating system that supports [Node.js] and [npm].
- Zoom cloud recording share link that does not require any additional authentication.

[node.js]: https://nodejs.org/
[npm]: https://www.npmjs.com/

---

For protected cloud recordings, the shareable link

- Should have the passcode embedded in the link.
- Should show a media player and a download button.
- Should not show an 'Enter the passcode to watch'.

Reference the [documentation](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/11692220055821) and update the following settings in the Zoom web portal.

```
ADMIN / Account Management / Account Settings
e.g. https://us06web.zoom.us/account/setting

[v] Allow cloud recording sharing - By disabling this setting, nobody else except the host can access the shareable link.

[v] Cloud recording downloads - Allow anyone with a link to the cloud recording to download
[ ] └── Only the host can download cloud recordings

[ ] Require users to authenticate before viewing cloud recordings

[ ] Set recording as on-demand by default - Users must register before they can watch the recording

[v] Require passcode to access shared cloud recordings
[v] └── Embed passcode in the shareable link for one-click access
```

## Prerequisites

[Node.js] and [npm] are required. The latest Node.js LTS installer can be downloaded [here](https://nodejs.org/en/download/).

- [npm] should be installed. (Included in the Node.js installer)
- `Add to PATH` option should be checked. (Windows only)

## Instructions

1. Create a `urls.txt` file and add URLs to the text file, one in each line.
2. Open a terminal in the directory where the `urls.txt` file is located.[^open-terminal]
3. Execute the `npx zoom-rec-dl@latest` command[^pnpm] in the terminal.

[^open-terminal]: When `ls` or `dir` command is executed, the `urls.txt` file should be listed.
[^pnpm]: pnpm users can use the `pnpm dlx zoom-rec-dl@latest` command instead.

```

## Advanced

### Get Notified on Completion

Create a `sendgrid.json` file alongside `urls.txt` to send an email when the download is completed.

```json
{
  "apiKey": "SendGrid-API-Key",
  "from": "sender@domain.com",
  "to": ["receiver1@domain.com", "receiver2@domain.com"]
}
```

### Automatically Start Downloading

Modify the `urls.txt` file to trigger a download process.

1. Install the [PM2] process manager [globally].
2. Install the [PM2 log rotating module].
3. Create a `ecosystem.config.js` file.

[PM2]: https://github.com/Unitech/pm2#readme
[globally]: https://pm2.keymetrics.io/docs/usage/quick-start/
[PM2 log rotating module]: https://github.com/keymetrics/pm2-logrotate#readme

```javascript
// ecosystem.config.js - should be placed alongside the `urls.txt` file.
// Reference https://pm2.keymetrics.io/docs/usage/application-declaration/
module.exports = {
  apps: [
    {
      name: 'zoom-download',
      script: 'npx zoom-rec-dl@latest',
      // script: 'pnpm dlx zoom-rec-dl@latest',
      watch: ['urls.txt'],
      time: true,
      autorestart: false,
    },
  ],
};
```

4. Run `pm2 start` and start the watch process.
