Zoom url with ../my/ instead of .../j/ - how to open commandline using zoommtg

Hi

 

For some zoom meetings I have gotten an email like this

 

 

https://yyyyy.zoom.us/my/some.random.name?pwd=xxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

 

Where there is not conference number, but there is some words like someone's name with dot.

When there is conference number, then there is number with 10 or 11 numbers in length. And this url is like that ".../j/"

 

I need to open zoom links with zoom.exe directly, using command line.

 

I have the correct syntax for that.

 

Zoom.exe "–url=zoommtg://yyyyyyy.zoom.us/join?action=join&confno=number_here&pwd=some_password"

 

 

But it does not seem to work with URL-s where there is "/my/" instead of "/j".

 

Can someone tell me how can I open those URL's also from command line  ?

 

Thanks

 

Regards

Raul Kaubi

zoom.us does not have a my sub folder you can access.

Zoom.exe "–url=zoommtg://yyyyyyy.zoom.us/join?action=join&confno=number_here&pwd=some_password"

this syntax is not correct for command line since it is missing path to zoom.exe and needs to omit the yyyyy variable.

Never mind the Zoom.exe full path. I just shortened the command. Know I have Zoom.exe in path. So there is no question regarding that.

Also, those will be replaced as well. Don't let it distract you.

yyyyyyy         <-- if you must know, nutanix.zoom.us is using those sub folders.
number_here
some_password

 

I am still waiting for a way to open those sub folders thhrough commandline.
