OTP issue. I turned off OTP verify but still " OTP " code asked when login to Zoom app.

Hi, @RangaAMDT,

I'm referencing this Zoom Support article, which you may have already found:

https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/6188435206157-Verifying-your-account-via-one-time-password-OTP-

In the section "How do I disable the OTP security feature?". it says you can't disable OTP, but can do any of the following:

• Set up two-factor authentication (2FA)
• Switch your login method to use Google, Apple, or Facebook
• Set up single-sign on (SSO)

Have you tried any of these?  Zoom has definitely been beefing up security lately, and while I agree it's sometimes pretty darn inconvenient, it's necessary.

In this Zoom Support article on 2FA, it lists the following 2FA approaches that can be used:

• Phone number that can receive SMS; or
• Android or iOS device with a 2FA app that supports Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) protocol. The following apps are recommended.
  • Google Authenticator (Android, iOS)
  • Microsoft Authenticator (Android, iOS, Windows)
  • FreeOTP (Android, iOS)
• Zoom desktop client for Windows, macOS, or Linux, 5.2.2 or higher
• Zoom Rooms for Conference Room for Windows or macOS, 5.2.1 or higher
• Users with the work email (email and password) login type

There is another workaround besides those mentioned by Ray Harwood below. You can use the "Claim host" feature. It requires the following to work:

• Do not use a waiting room.
• Enable participants to join at any time (if this is not enabled, Zoom imposes a waiting room whether or not you have enabled this feature)
• Make sure the "recognized" host is NOT in the meeting; if an official host is present, there is no option to claim host.
• Ahead of time, provide a meeting participant with the specific "Host Key" found in the account profile.
• Once the person who will host the Zoom meeting is in the meeting, they can click on "Claim Host" at the bottom of the participant list, enter the Host Key, and have full host privileges. I tested this option with one of my volunteers and it works.
