Account owners and admins can require their regulated users' in-meeting chat conversations to be archived when they join Zoom meetings hosted by an external organization. When enabled, users in the meeting are shown a disclaimer that archiving is on. Regulated users who join external meetings will have their in-meeting chat archived as well apart from audio. This feature must be enabled by Zoom.

Note: Regulated guests from external accounts may not be able to join your meetings if this option is disabled.
