How do I access the Panopto archive and restore a recording?

Modified on: Wed, May 3 2023 3:21 PM

As a creator (owner) of a recording you have several different ways to find and restore your archived recordings in Panopto.

We recommend the following procedure to access the archive and restore a recording:

  1. Login to Georgetown’s Panopto web portal
  2. Click on the ‘System’ button (gear icon) located on the lower-left corner of the screen
  3. Click on ‘Archive’
  4. Mouse over the recording and click the ‘Restore from Archive’ button that appears.

    Note: It can take up to 48 hours to restore content from the archive. Once restored be sure to view the recording (just a few seconds) to prevent it from being placed back into the archive again.

Here are alternative ways to locate and restore your archived recordings in the Panopto web portal:

  • From the Search function: Enter a keyword (e.g. part of the recording title), review the results on the page, locate and mouse over the recording and click the ‘Restore from archive’ button that appears.
  • From within a Panopto folder:
    1. Open the folder and click the Archived button that appears below the title of the folder and along the tool bar. Note: If no archive button appears then the folder contains no archived recordings.
    2. Mouse over the recording and click the ‘Restore from archive’ button that appears.
