How Does Fathom Auto-Share Recordings and Summaries with Attendees?
Fathom can automatically share your meeting recordings and/or AI-generated summaries with attendees—but only if auto-share is turned on in your Fathom settings.
Here’s how it works:
Auto-Share Options
When you enable auto-share, you can choose what attendees receive:
Summary & Recording: Both your AI-generated meeting summary and a link to the recording are sent automatically.
Summary Only: Only the summary is sent; attendees won’t get the recording automatically. (They can still request the recording, but the call owner must approve it.)
Nothing: No summary or recording is shared.
Who Gets It?
All meeting attendees on the invite will receive the auto-share, even if they didn’t attend the meeting.
Auto-share happens right after your meeting ends, so everyone gets access quickly.
Tip: If someone wasn’t on the invite but needs access, you can still manually share the recording or summary with them.
Can I unsend a recording I’ve already shared?
Currently, Fathom doesn’t have a feature to “unsend” a recording once it’s been shared. This is a limitation of email systems and servers.
However, you can revoke someone’s access to the recording at any time:
Open the recording you’ve shared.
Find the person’s email under the sharing settings.
Click Remove
Once removed, they will no longer be able to access the recording.
⚠️ Important:
If your sharing is set to “Anyone with the link can view,” the recording will remain accessible to anyone who has the link.
For added security, change your sharing settings to “Only people added can view.”
