One month duration limit on reports in Zoom Webinars

Hi all, I am frustrated by the very limited reporting functionality in Zoom.

 

1) The one-month maximum report duration for filtering webinars is so limited as to be an obstacle. It is random and useless to limit the user to a one-month view of all of the webinars you have set up if you schedule webinars many months in advance. I schedule up to 20 webinars six months in advance and cannot pick from more than one month at a time. Is there ever any hope that this limitation will be removed or increased?  (See image below.)

 

2) It is also quite frustrating to only be able to search webinars by the webinar ID, and not the title or other keywords related to the webinar. Who has memorized id numbers?  (See image below.)

 

Generally, the reporting functionality seems to have been designed with a case use of a customer who only plans one webinar at a time or very few. I feel like Zoom focused so much on the in-session webinar participants' user experience, and very little on the experience of the actual customer, the administrators who have to manage the logistical aspects of webinars.

Can you get ATTENDEES to be part of a practice webinar? Or invite them to it?

As host, I ran a practice webinar with the panelists and it worked fine, but I was not able to experience it as an attendee. I specifically wanted to make sure the waiting room video played and wanted to confirm that the host was hidden. When I would send the invite link to an attendee email it would open the Zoom window but it would say the meeting was starting at the official start, days away, and NOT open up to the practice link.

Hi @chunsiong.zoom and the rest of the Zoom support team

I have some doubts regarding the new policy for the access to the Webinar SDK and the requirement of publishing the app and be reviewed.

 

My use case is the following: our company has developed a Windows desktop app and we are integrating the SDK as an extra module of the app for being able to join to a Webinar and share its screen, so the audience can see our UI.

Of course, we were doing the auth process, joining the webinar, etc. and it worked well. The problem with our solution with the new policy is that the webinars are created from external Zoom accounts.

We have tried publishing and requesting the app review, but it has been rejected. Is this use case allowed under the Zoom SDK policy? How could we solve the review issue? (the reason why Zoom has rejected our first attempt)
Thanks in advance!

Another much-needed feature request to share with the community!

 

Some of you may know about a cool little feature in Zoom called 'Simulive'.

https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0058205

 

When this feature launched, it merely allowed you to play back a meeting/webinar from your Zoom Cloud repository of recordings. This was cute, but not super useful in our environment, where we frequently need to clean up recordings, make edits, re-arrange Zoom's gawdy layouts where speaker-video overlaps valuable content (another feature request!) etc, before the recordings are ready for distribution. Fairly recently, though, Zoom added the option to Upload Recordings, which permits us to take a fully produced show (edited in Premiere, Avid, etc) and inject this into the Zoom Cloud repo.

^^ Hot Dog! Now we're talking!

 

So what's the problem?

We're all set to run a delightful Simulive webinar of pre-produced content for scheduled playback for our users (many gathering in conference rooms - Zoom Rooms, specifically) in global offices that may have been asleep when the talks initially took place. But it seems that this seemingly helpful Simulive feature has been implemented in the most useless way imaginable:

bstrelko_1-1708618792032.png

Can I join using Zoom Client, which my AV/UC (or in Zoom's view 'IT') department meticulously manages and supports? NO.

OK, but can I join from a Zoom Room and have a one-touch-join experience for a large audience to view a scheduled broadcast? One of those rooms that my AV/UC department has spent time and effort designing? NO.

You can join from a web browser, which you don't have to use for any other Zoom meeting/webinar in your enterprise environement. Something not working? Just submit a ticket to your AV/UC team, who doesn't have to support something like this under any other circumstance.

 

Yes, I'm salty.

I just don't know why such a conceptually useful feature was released in such a functionally useless way (just kidding - I do - it was easier to implement and devs have not considered how it would actually be used in practice).

 

Sharing in the hopes that others may also see a need for Simulive for Zoom Rooms and Zoom Client - if this is something you or your org would like, please be sure to submit a formal feature request to Zoom!

The dialog box showing the status/progress of a local Webinar recording is stuck at 99%.  This is being done on a work laptop using a VPN connection to the company network.  The recording is done while on the VPN connection.  But the VPN connection unexpectedly disconnected (losing network connectivity) while the recording was in progress.  The VPN connection has been restored but now it appears that the recording status is stuck at 99%.

There is a temp file (video1239184949.mp4.tmp) on my local drive.  But the file is not "viewable" (even if the ".tmp" is removed from the file name).

 

Any suggestions / solutions to getting a workable video file?

Sorry for my English is strange.


Please tell me about the case of hosting a Zoom webinar.
In my account, the maximum number of connected people is 500.
If I co-host with a user who has an add-on that allows up to 1000 connections, will the number of connections be upgraded to 1000?
How about if I designate them as alternate hosts instead of co-hosts?
