Assessment Reasoning
This is a new general availability announcement introducing role-based enforcement for recording and transcription downloads in Dynamics 365 Contact Center. Admins can adjust Dataverse roles to restrict downloads for governance and compliance protection. Impact is moderate for admins due to configuration and policy considerations but minimal for end users, as viewing and playback functions remain unchanged. Urgency and implementation effort are moderate since this is a planned capability with no required action before release.

📢 Official Microsoft Message Center Announcement
Dynamics 365 Contact Center – Use role-based enforcement for recording and transcription downloads
Message ID: MC1485169
We are announcing the ability to use role-based enforcement for recording and transcription downloads in Dynamics 365 Contact Center. This feature will reach general availability on October 31, 2026.
How does this affect me?
This feature helps organizations better protect sensitive customer communications by separating permissions to view recordings and transcripts from permissions to download them. Admins can assign new Dataverse security roles to prevent selected users from downloading recordings or transcripts while still allowing them to view and play back content as permitted by existing access.
The two new Dataverse security roles that will be available are:
- Deny Recording Download
- Deny Transcription Download
- The user can continue to view and play back recordings and transcripts as permitted by existing access.
- The user is blocked from downloading the corresponding artifact.
Access control is driven entirely by Dataverse role assignment. The deny roles override implicit download behavior without affecting recording, transcription, or playback functionality.
These controls help reduce the risk of unauthorized data export, support compliance and data governance requirements, and allow organizations to maintain operational visibility without allowing data removal.
What action do I need to take?
This message is for awareness, and no action is required.
