Looking for some suggestions.  I try to map as much as possible through SAML.  I've got user groups mapped for license types and some Zoom Phone rights.  Now I need to add another group for a marketplace app.  Looking at my mapping, I keep thinking there has to be a better way of doing this.  I thought maybe I could be clever and pass a different attribute name, but no dice.  A group is a group.

So today, I have my mapping like this to account for host / basic and call recording rights or no.

Attribute         SAML Value                                   Zoom Group

CallRights     ZoomCall_Recording_Hosts     Zoom_Hosts  Zoom_CallRecording
UserGroup    Zoom_Hosts                                  Zoom_Hosts
CallRights      ZoomCall_Recording_Basic      Zoom_Basic  Zoom_CallRecording
UserGroup    Zoom_Basic                                    Zoom_Basic

If I wanted to add another permission for this marketplace app, this strategy starts to get complicated.  The only way I can think to do it is to pass a SAML value for every possible rights config.

Attribute         SAML Value                                   Zoom Group

AppRights     ZoomApp_Recording_Hosts    Zoom_Hosts  Zoom_CallRecording  Zoom_MrktApp
AppRights     ZoomApp_NoRecording_Hosts    Zoom_Hosts  Zoom_MrktApp
CallRights     ZoomCall_Recording_Hosts     Zoom_Hosts  Zoom_CallRecording
UserGroup    Zoom_Hosts                                  Zoom_Hosts
AppRights     ZoomApp_Recording_Basic    Zoom_Basic  Zoom_CallRecording  Zoom_MrktApp
AppRights     ZoomApp_NoRecording_Basic    Zoom_Basic  Zoom_MrktApp
CallRights      ZoomCall_Recording_Basic      Zoom_Basic  Zoom_CallRecording
UserGroup    Zoom_Basic                                    Zoom_Basic

Is this really the only way to do it or am I missing something?

Has anyone had success in adding a new monthly paid user (licensee) to an annually paid account, so that they can temporarily access (and use) the annual account for related meetings/trainings for other groups within the same organization? I've been trying to get an accurate answer to this question from the outsourced Support Group, and it's been a long and extremely frustrating experience

I met with Rose during our business review, and she shared some great insights. Her organization operates in the education sector and has a hybrid setup, so recording their meetings is crucial for reviewing performance. She mentioned that the new AI companion Smart recording feature has been a tremendous help for them, making their job easier and more efficient.

Did you know that aside from the regular schedule booking on Zoom Scheduler, it also has a poll feature where you can gather availability information from participants for a new meeting? Yes, you read it right! Zoom Scheduler has the Availability Poll feature which is designed to simplify the process of finding a suitable meeting time that works for everyone on your invite list.

Zoom Scheduler’s Availability Poll can help you eliminate the back-and-forth emails typically involved in scheduling meetings as it can find your meeting participant’s available time, and provide you a visual representation of their preferred date and time, making it easier for you as the host, to find a common ground for your meetings and also gives people on your invite list a voice in scheduling.

So how does this work?

1. Create an Availability Poll: On the Zoom Scheduler, click on “Create Schedules”, and choose "Availability Poll".

2. Set Meeting Details: Fill in details like meeting topic, duration, and hosts. Then, on the calendar, select multiple date and time windows or specific times you're available.

3. Share the Poll: Once details are set, you can click on the “Publish” button, and share the link to your invitees. You do have the option to allow poll participants to see each other’s names and votes.

4. Attendees Vote: Attendees then receives a link to the poll and can select their available time slots from the options provided. They can also select multiple date and time that they're available.

5. Availability Poll Results Overview: You'll see a clear overview of everyone's availability through email. Based on the results, you can then choose the time that works best for the most attendees and proceed in scheduling the meeting.

Availability Poll is best used on all meetings where you’d need to find a common time, but the below are additional scenarios where you can use Availability Poll.

Internal / External Meetings:  If you want to find a new time slot for a meeting that better accommodates everyone's schedules, you can send a Scheduler Poll with various time options across different days to check your team’s preferences.  

Sales Calls / Demo Calls: If you are a sales specialist, you can schedule a call for a group of potential customers and use Scheduler Poll with various time slots to accommodate the schedules of multiple attendees, allowing the your customers to choose a convenient time within their busy schedule to ensure a high attendance rate.  

Webinar for a Big Team:  If you need to conduct a webinar for a big team, you can send a Scheduler Poll to check their availability across different time zones and choose a time that maximizes majority's participation.  

Team Building / Team Activity:  If you are a planning a meetup or an activity for your team members, you can use a Scheduler Poll to identify a time slot that accommodates the schedules of your team members.  

With Availability Poll, you can say goodbye to scheduling frustration. Just send a simple poll with your available date and time, and identify the sweet spot that works best for you and your attendees so you can maximize attendance and participation, and also minimize schedule conflicts.

We have noticed that our annual subscription will expire on August 31, 2024, we purchased a lot of licenses. However, these licenses were purchased in different dates. For our renewal, should we renew all those licenses on August 31, 2024, all at the same time, although these were purchased in different dates?
I hope you can answer my concern. Thanks~

Hello,

  I have a Zoom Business Plus account and have been a Zoom customer since 2016.  Because new updates occur frequently, I am wondering if my understanding of cloud recordings is correct and up to date.  When zoom cloud recordings were first rolled out, I was informed that HIPAA compliant Zoom accounts could only record locally and not to the cloud due to HIPAA security issues with cloud recordings.  Is that still the case or have updates been made to allow HIPAA compliance in cloud recordings?  Further, my account allows for transcripts but my understanding is that transcripts are only available for cloud recordings.  So, are HIPAA compliant accounts able to benefit from the use of transcripts?
