Hello Zoom Community,

I am the regular host of the Zoom Test Kitchen, a live community workshop of like-minded folks from 90+ countries, who desire to learn the details of Zoom Meetings, Webinars, and much more.

We meet every Friday at 2PM CST / 7PM UTC.

This Friday, December 17th I want to thank and welcome @Rupert McRae who graciously accepted to host, in my absence.  Rupert is a well-versed contributor in this Zoom Community, and does a great job hosting the Zoom Test Kitchen.

This Friday's Focus - Advanced Zoom Polls & Quizzes.

I personally invite you to join us, or watch from YouTube if you prefer, where we stream our meetings live, and for playback later.

The Zoom Test Kitchen has provided a relaxed learning environment for over 1 1/2 years. Whether its managing a Zoom Meeting, Webinar, or delivering a full-blown production with Zoom as an essential ingredient, you'll definitely walk-away with more than you arrived with.

The Zoom Test Kitchen is a LIVE Workshop, it is NOT a PowerPoint Presentation, and we often identify undocumented behaviors that save our bacon in the workplace.

Thank you and we hope to see you in the Kitchen!

Hi! A few weeks ago, the polling feature allowed for questions that had new lines in them. For example, we used polling feature to ask coding questions such as 

What will the following function resolve to? 

function addNumbers(num1, num2) { 
 return num1 + num2;

} 

addNumbers(2, 3);


That entire thing would show up, formatted exactly including new lines. However, now it won't allow for any new lines and our questions can no longer be formatted reasonably. Is there a way to get this functionality back through a setting or maybe there is a way to embed images to replace these questions?

Thanks for any help / guidance!

Is there a way to automate the process to add a cloud recording link back to the original zoom invitation?

My organization uses Google Calendar and we have the Zoom Plug into schedule meetings. When integrated into the Zoom platform (on Mac), it will show my upcoming meeting schedule where I can quickly Join or Start a Call. I occasionally record a meeting to the cloud. Then I have to wait for processing and Zoom auto-sends me an email. Assuming I am sharing that meeting back to the original list of attendees, why can Zoom not edit that invite with the recording and re-send it to everyone who was invited to the meeting?

There would need to be controls around this and an ability to have the system to NOT do this when specified. 99% of the time though, a feature like this would be handy for my meetings or meetings I am a part of. 

There is a lot of leg work finding a recording for a meeting. There should be an automated way to share these within calendar integrations.

Finished recording a meeting locally and waited for the recording to convert.  Then got a pop-up message saying Remove "double_click_to_convert_01.zoom" from your Dropbox account and all devices?  If you move this file to $Deleted, it won't be available in Dropbox or on any devices.  The choices are "Cancel" or "Move out of Dropbox". 

I don't know what this means but I do not want to lose this recording.  What does this message mean and what should I do?

Where is my recording stored?

When I first used a link that had been sent to me, I was automatically given an alias that was wrong. How do I change it? I have asked the chat the same question but was unable to follow the directions given. I was told to click on Edit to change it, but I never reached an Edit.
