How to disable login verification code

Just filed a ticket requesting a bypass of the OTP until they have a fix. we'll see. Its amazing all the people here, I don't know if it will make a difference but maybe everyone should enter a support ticket too... they don't seem to care bout us posting here.

I filed a ticket via the Support portal requesting OTP be disabled for our company.  Zoom Support sent me an email asking for details as to why we cannot just use 2FA or SOS.  I have sent the reasons why these options won't work for us.

Meanwhile, I am using a temporary workaround until OTP is eliminated. 

I have activated 2FA for all of our accounts, however, I have not set up the actual 2FA app information on the Zoom accounts.  So, when our trainers login they will get a message that the administrator has set up 2FA and request that they set up the 2FA.  There is a option on the page: Not ready to set up two-factor authentication? Skip.".  They can just click on "Skip" and go right into the account and no OTP is activated.

Hopefully, Zoom will soon get the message from all of our comments here and Support tickets that OTP should be optional at the discretion of the account holder and not just globally implemented.  If not, as others have mentioned, then Teams is a good alternative.

So many of us seriously affected by this and not a peep. We're a nonprofit sharing four pro accounts for different hosts to run vital  support groups. 

I've opened a support ticket. In the meanwhile, if hosts use their personal email to log in and then use Zoom account Hostkey to claim meeting host, would that be ok workaround until it's fixed, or we leave?

Since they ignore us here mabye we goto twitter or other social media @51 there is  a new president maybe we can persuade him. 

We purchased 12 extra license seats from Zoom, specifically for using with different trainers across the country. These accounts often are used by one person on one day, and someone totally different on another day and in another location in the country.

These users sign in with a trainer+1 trainer+2 etc. username/password combo that are tied to our trainer@....  Gmail address and these trainers do NOT have access to the email inbox for this address.

This is the place that these 'codes' are sent to..  This means we have to babysit this email address and have someone internal to the company send out each individual code to each of these different remote trainers, each of whom are in different time zones, etc.

This isn't security, or you would just allow this to be a toggle setting in the Advanced tab in Zoom settings. This is Zoom being heavy-handed in the way that they enforce the terms in which you use their service.

You gave no notice when you turned it on the first time which pretty much enraged everyone, then turned it off re-evaluate.

I guess you are done re-evaluating, because you turn it back on AGAIN with NO notice, causing panicked scrambling as we have training in place tomorrow. We give you a lot of $$$ and this is serious cause for us to do some re-evaluation on our own as to the service we pay for.

the other solution is to use Host Key, instead of sharing your account to others. Using Host Key so you can easily gave the host to others without sharing your premium account, ergo, no verification code (OTP).

One needs to sign in with the zoom premium account, create the scheduled zoom links, and obtained the hostkey to be given to the other one whom login with another zoom basic account, whom using the hostkey to claim the host role.

Just make sure of one thing, don't enable the waiting room and set the login time to 'anytime' while creating the scheduled zoom links.

Enjoy! 😃

Yoga Studio here - same issue. Our instructors are unable to log in reliably due to OTP. So far I end up providing the

We partner with Apiant to link up Zoom and Mind Body which forces us into setting up discrete zoom accounts (to make things work, automating meeting/class set up, registering students, etc.)  so having a separate account for each instructor is cost-prohibitive (most teach 1x per week) - we do have 3 paid accounts, we'd need to increase that to 10 or 12 to cover all the instructors teaching remotely. 

If this continue we will need to migrate off zoom and onto the Mind Body branded platform. Not happy about that.  

Joining the chat to confirm that we have encountered this issue for the first time this week and from two computers regularly used by our teachers.  This is making the use of the room impossible if the office manager is out of the office and we can't access her email account.  What do we need to do to set the email account for this to a common mailbox so it is available when we sign in? 

This is SUCH a problem!! Zoom needs to address this.
