Bypass the login screen with registered users and private mettings

Hello, I'm using the Zoom API to integrate it into our eLearning website. From there, I create a meeting [users/{$hostEmail}/meetings] with the following options:'host_video' => true,'participant_video' => false,'join_before_host' => false,'mute_upon... Show more

Hello, I'm using the Zoom API to integrate it into our eLearning website. From there, I create a meeting [users/{$hostEmail}/meetings] with the following options:
'host_video' => true,
'participant_video' => false,
'join_before_host' => false,
'mute_upon_entry' => true,
'auto_recording' => 'cloud',
'waiting_room' => false,
'approval_type' => 2,
'meeting_authentication' => true
Then, from the API, I also create the student accounts [/users] with the option: 'action' => "autoCreate"
I retrieve the start_url for the teacher from the class creation process, and the teacher connects directly from that URL. I'm retrieving the join_url for the student connection, but it always asks for a username and password.
How can I bypass the login screen and have the student join the meeting directly?
I've tried creating a ZAK for the student and passing it to the join_url, I've tried using a user token, I've tried accessing with ?tk=;
I've also tried using the client-side web SDK by creating a signature and running init and join, but in all cases, the login screen pops up.

I need to register users with the same name we have on our platform because we then retrieve [report/meetings/{$meetingNumber}/participants] the participation of each participant and we need to create reports with this information.

 

Thanks, any suggestions are welcome.

When does the 40 minutes limit start?

Hi I am using zoom to give an english class to one student. Both of us are using free plan so we have 40 minutes time limit. So I was wondering when does the 40 minutes time limit start? I usually open the zoom meeting like 5 minutes prior before the student enters the meeting. Does the time limit start based on when I opened the meeting or when the participant enters the meeting?

 

I am really curious about it but it's so hard to find exact detailed explanation on this issue.

 

Thank you

I recently bought a new computer that is an HP Omnibook 5. Computer is an upgrade in every area compared to my old one. Internet works perfectly fine everywhere including Teams meetings with 10 participants. If I'm in a Zoom with any amount of people I get a 10-20 second lag once every 3-5 minutes or so and the your internet is unstable message. Everything was working fine on my old computer so I believe it is something to do with my new computer. This has happened 10 out of the last 10 meetings. I have tried testing my internet a few different ways and everything there seems to be working fine getting 500mb down and 150 mb upload. I have uninstalled zoom and reinstalled. 

 

Any help or next steps is appreciated. Thank you!

Audio Drops During Meetings

I am on Windows 11 Home, Dell Inspiron 7506 2n1, wired to an external monitor with built-in speakers. I have been using Zoom successfully with this setup for roughly two years. In my last two meetings, one group and the other one-on-one, the audio ha... Show more

I am on Windows 11 Home, Dell Inspiron 7506 2n1, wired to an external monitor with built-in speakers. I have been using Zoom successfully with this setup for roughly two years. 


In my last two meetings, one group and the other one-on-one, the audio has dropped out 20 minutes or more into the meeting. Other participants remain able to hear me, however, I cannot hear them. 

 

I have completed a pretty thorough search online, but have not found a solution. Any help as to how to prevent the audio dropping would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Change Zoom attendance report retention

Attendee logs are retained for 15 months per Getting started with Zoom reporting

 

How can we change this retention period? I don't see any knowledge articles explaining how the retention period can be reduced from 15 months to say, 180 days.

I recently paired my new Airpods Pro with my PC, and it is the default speaker/microphone. When I am in a Zoom meeting, I do not hear anything (nor can anyone hear my mic), even when the Zoom settings show I am connected to my Airpods. Volume is up everywhere. I have manually changed the mic/headphones within Zoom setting. I test speaker and microphone and no sound comes through my airpods  This is ONLY a Zoom issue (no trouble hearing any other audio on my PC) and it's not happening with the Zoom app on my phone.

Resolved! Very low volume via Airpods Pro 2 on Windows 11

Hello, ProblemI'm using my Airpods Pro 2 to take Zoom calls on my PC running Windows 11. Despite keeping the volume to 100%, I can barely hear what the others are saying only in a Zoom call. When I'm playing audio via Spotify windows app, or Youtube ... Show more

Hello,

 

Problem

I'm using my Airpods Pro 2 to take Zoom calls on my PC running Windows 11. Despite keeping the volume to 100%, I can barely hear what the others are saying only in a Zoom call. When I'm playing audio via Spotify windows app, or Youtube via browser, 20% volume is sufficient to provide that clarity.

 

When I keep Spotify playing on the side with say 30% volume and open Zoom settings -> Audio, there is a pause in the playback and then the audio playing via Spotify becomes barely audible. The loudness drops drastically (despite keeping 100% volume) only on Zoom calls or Zoom audio settings. 100% volume on Zoom feels like 20% or less in other apps. The mic output seems fine though. I'm noticing a similar issue with my older Airpods Pro gen 1 headphones as well.

 

More details

Device type: Windows 11 Professional on custom PC running Intel Z690 motherboard with built in bluetooth support.

Zoom version:  5.14.11 (17466)

 

What I've tried already

I tried factory resetting the Airpods, unpairing & repairing them, checked the Sound settings in Windows to ensure Zoom volume is 100%, also disabled all sound effects in Sound settings.

 

The Airpods Pro work fine with my phone, the volume and loudness is perfect. 

 

Please can someone help?
