Zoom Web Links Always Open Zoom App and Don't Let Adjust my Name App doesn't Read Web Links

[Lumens2024]

Hopefully posted in correct section. 

I get zoom links from various groups via emails. I want to be able to make sure I have the correct name showing when I open zoom. But the meeting ALWAYS just opens without asking for the name. Makes no sense.

Now if I open the app, it starts and ask me for the name. However, I can't paste the web link into the meeting join fields. The web link has the meeting info including passwords in the string, but the zoom app is too dumb to parse the information or provide a field that does that. 

How insane is that?
