Only the meeting organizer or a delegate can start or stop a recording.
Recordings are automatically saved to the cloud, so they can be accessed from any device with an internet connection.

Troubleshooting Meeting Recording Issues in Microsoft Teams
Despite its reliability, there may be occasions where you encounter issues with recording a Teams meeting. Here are some common issues and their solutions:
"Start recording" button is greyed out: This could be due to a variety of reasons, such as the recording feature being disabled in your organization's settings, or the meeting organizer not having permission to record. To troubleshoot this issue, check your organization's recording settings and ensure that you have the necessary permissions.
"Stop recording" button is greyed out: This could be due to the recording having been stopped by another user or the recording having been automatically stopped due to inactivity. To troubleshoot this issue, check with other attendees to see if someone else stopped the recording or check to see if the recording was stopped due to inactivity.
