Waiting for host to login

I cannot get into any of the Zoom meetings that are set up in my calendar.

 

My VA linked my calendar to Zoom.   I signed up my Zoom account with Google Sign in, and I'm signing in the same way on my computer/app.

 

When I click on the zoom link to start the meeting, it always says "Waiting for Host to Join" - but I am the host.

 

I just updated my app, but we can't find the solution here - what am I missing?

Hi,
You may be getting stuck because Zoom is not recognizing your account properly. Could you make sure you log in through the Zoom Workplace app on your desktop before clicking on any meeting links. This should hopefully help Zoom recognize you as the host rather than a random participant.
Hope this helps!
