Hello!

When I create a zoomDoc, i can attibute a role for writing or not to the guests of my reunion. When I type the beguinnig of the name of a participant, i'm in a easy autocomplete process. But in that procedure, i sometimes see the name of my reunion among the participant's names. What does it mean? Can I attribute a role to the entire group instead of making that effort for every single member? 

Thanks
a.

Errors in Docs (when edititing or sharing in meeting)

I've been working on a guide to Docs in Docs and twice (in as many days) had an error telling me, that I can't edit this page anymore and need to copy the content to another page. Which I can't do, because ZOOM only shows a blank page, making me loose all my content. (Edit: After messing around some more with the settings and a few hours time, the page reappeared.). This happened in ZOOM Workplace.

I was fooling around with the settings in the browser before (to find out how they work and which users need to set in different situations, making Docs temporarily unavailable) but this shouldn't make me loose content.

 

Also, when I share an existing document in a meeting for collaboration and stop the sharing, I can't open the same document in the same meeting again. I get the message, that this document is already shared at the time - even though I stopped sharing and want to start again. I have to close the meeting and start again, before the document is available again. Anyone who can reproduce this?

Edit2: According to our hoster, this last one is actually a ZOOM-Bug!

I have synced my data tables but now just want to keep the originals.

But when I delete a synced table I will also delete the original, it seems.

Is there a safe way to delete a synced data table? I know that in Notion you can un-snyc them. But I do not see that option here.

Can't create new document during a meeting, only open existing ones

I can only open existing documents, which is weird, because I cannot create new documents outside of a meeting, because the option is disabled. And now I also cannot create new documents within a meeting. (ZOOM Docs is enabled in Meetings or I wouldn't even have the button "Documents" available, to get to this point.)

What did I do wrong?

Edit: Can be reproduced by our hoster, so probably a ZOOM-Bug. Will contact ZOOM about this through them.

Resolved! Can't allow people to answer forms in docs

I wrote a guide to using ZOOM Docs using Docs. The whole document is set on commentary but no editing for viewers. I inserted a whiteboard, which I set to editing. This works fine. People cannot edit the document, but they can edit the whiteboard, as intended.

 

I did the same with the forms-view of the table, wanting people to be able to fill out a form with predefined questions in my document. I have this published and set to "everyone with link can answer" but people CAN'T ANSWER.

 

I'm talking about this view:

If I set the document to edit (which is not an option, just for testing's sake), people still can't answer the questions, they can only edit them. What do I have to do, to get people to be able to answer the questions?

 

Edit: I got it. Forms need a separate Link to share with users, they are apparently not intended to be integrated in usable form in a document. I improvised by embedding the correct link in my document. I leave this here in case others are confused. Also, maybe it would be an idea to simplify using forms in documents, the same way it is done with whiteboards?

Refer to a PowerPoint by a "link" in a Template and subsequent Docs

Hey, everyone.

 

I provide a 20-30 minute individual Presenter Consult to speakers in my Events.  The Docs Template feature is great, allowing me to create a place to put a checklist of things to cover and take notes about each presenter.

 

I have a small PowerPoint deck I want to show each of the Presenters.  It's on my PC, but ideally I wish there was ONE place I could store it in Zoom Docs, and then REFER to that one copy in the Template, which then replicates into the individual documents that are generated from the Template (just the link - not the full PPTX file).  That way, when I'm getting started, I can just click the link in the Doc I'm working in, and the PowerPoint will launch.

 

Unfortunately, I don't see any way to do this.  Just making a File link to the external-to-Docs PowerPoint would be okay, but I can't find that either.  And I'd prefer to have it embedded somewhere (once) so my production team would also have access to it and the individual notes.

 

I appreciate any suggestions!

I am trying to share a folder and a document in Zoom docs.  I have tried via the Workplace and also via Zoom web access.  

 

For the document sharing in Zoom docs:

I am able to share the document with some external users but not all.  The oddest thing is that I can share with one user from an external org, but not a second user from that same org.  There does not appear to be a doc sharing security setting at the document level.

 

e.g. name1(at) domain.name works for sharing, BUT name2(at) domain.name cannot be shared too (why would this be the case with the same external domain?)

 

For the folder sharing in Zoom docs:

I am unable to share with external users (e.g. name2 (at) domain.name) even though my Security setting allows for sharing with external users.

 

Anyone else experiencing the same thing?  Any recommendations for what my tenant admins should be looking at?  Thanks!
