How is the color of the participant initials (that appear next to their name) determined in the participant list/chat/Q&A? Colors change when you or the participant changes their name.
When I start Zoom, I have to let all participants into the meeting. How can I ensure that the participants automatically enter the meeting without letting them in individually? What settings do I need to make?
Hi Zoom,
I am the admin how to disable the cloud recording downloads in single user?
I meet regularly with someone else who has her own zoom account, she used her account number for the meeting. Is there someplace within my own account that I can schedule this meeting, using her account number, or do I need to keep hitting the link which I have to locate somewhere else (like on my Ical, where it somehow got corrupted)?

The Auto-Generated Closed captions are a very useful tool on meetings, and I know that we have the ability to save the transcripts. I would like to see an option to automatically save the transcript of meetings, differentiated based on whether I am a participant or host. Or at least a prompt. As it currently stands if I forget to save the transcript before I leave a meeting there is no way to recover it. Tyler

I had a problem yesterday at a Zoom meeting. I was using a laptop in the same room as the presenter. I have done this many times without any problems. I have a headset with a microphone connected to the laptop. When I was let in to the meeting, for some unknown reason Zoom did not detect my speaker nor microphone. (And i did not know that until I was let in to the meeting.) But the laptop was causing echo in the Zoom meeting. There was no way that I could mute my session because, as Zoom did not recognize my microphone and speaker/headphones, it did not provide me with a mute icon. This has never happened before, and it did not happen when I just tested the laptop and headset with another Zoom session. I have no idea why Zoom did not sense my microphone and headset. But I consider it a bug that Zoom did not present me with any way to mute. I had to disconnect from the Zoom session.

So from the docs there used to be an option to use 3rd party surveys:
https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0067657 (under step 6)
But since Zoom implemented their own surveys, it looks to me like you guys quietly gutted this feature. Is this feature still available? If not, maybe update your docs so there's no confusion.

We can upload custom emojis in Zoom Team Chat, why can't we use them in the in-call chat in Zoom Meetings? Seems like an easy change.
Thank you
When analysing the surveys in a meeting where guests can also register, the names are not displayed. I have a meeting and a survey in which everyone can participate, I did a test and registered as a guest where I can also enter my name. So I can not do any analysis of the result because I only see Guest as name. The anonymised participation option is switched off.
If I now take part in the survey and then look at the results, I only see Guest in the name and not the name entered by the guest.
