Introducing the Microsoft Stream workflow
This workflow outlines how you can use Microsoft Teams to record your videos and how you can store and share them.
- Uploading: you can upload previously recorded content (such as your downloaded Panopto recordings) into OneDrive, SharePoint or a Teams site
- Recording: create new videos using Microsoft Teams
- Store and share: Share recordings to individuals, groups or locations (such as a Moodle page) in the same way that you would any other file across Microsoft 365
- View recordings: View all recordings, including content shared with you, from one central location: the Stream start page
About Microsoft Stream
Stream empowers you to record, upload, discover, share, and manage video just as you would any other file. Video is like any other document. It seamlessly integrates with apps across Microsoft 365, so you get the same experience no matter where you add or engage with video content.
With Stream, you can:
- Store and share video files in SharePoint, Teams, or OneDrive just like you would any other file.
- Make new recordings using Microsoft Teams
- View all of your recordings, including those shared with you, from one single location
- Automatically generate, and easily update closed captions for accessibility
- Manually add chapters, letting a viewer jump right to the part of the audio/video file they want
- Collaborate with comments, just like with any other Microsoft 365 document
- Share videos with others, including external partners or guests, just like you share any other file
- Get analytics to know how your viewers are watching
Stream start page
View all of your videos in one central place, wherever they are stored. This will include anything shared with you.
The Stream start page helps you to find videos and Teams meeting recordings and quickly pick up where you left off or discover new content that was shared or is useful to you.
Stream web player
The Stream web player improves the way you consume video content. It works seamlessly with the Stream start page in Microsoft 365.
Watch a video while reading the transcript, use chapters to navigate to sections you care about most, and leave a comment for others. The playback controls work just as you would expect, with the addition of noise suppression, captions, and full-screen support.
It's also your video management tool where you can add a title and description to your audio/video file, set a custom thumbnail, add the chapters you want, generate a transcript, share videos, and even share your video at a specific time code.
