Save or clear your organization's in-meeting chats after a meeting
If in-meeting chat is turned on, you can choose whether the chat is automatically saved or cleared after the meeting. This is an organization-wide setting that applies only to your sites on our Webex Suite meeting platform. This setting cannot be applied on a site-by-site basis.
Chat messages that are sent to Everyone in an internal meeting are saved by default after the meeting has ended. Users can search and easily access meeting notes, questions, decisions, action items, and chat, whether or not they attended the meeting. Attendees that join late don't miss important content, as they can still see the chat from the time the meeting started.
Closed captions are only saved when the meeting was recorded. Users cannot see the closed captions that were displayed before they joined the meeting.
Saved chats are subject to compliance and are governed by an organization's meeting retention policy.
For more information about who can access saved chats, see Webex App | Chat in a meeting.
