"zoommtg"-links are blocked (in Edge)

Hi everyone,

perhaps one of you can help me.

 

I have the following problem with Zoom. I receive an invitation link and would like to open it in the Edge browser. The error message says "zoommtg" links are blocked.

 

Regarding the Edge configuration:

  • all websites are blocked for Edge via ADMX template
  • the following websites are whitelisted or have been tested: "zoom.us, *.zoom.us, zoom.de, zoom.eu, http://zoom.us, https://zoom.us, zoomapp.cloud, /downloads"

 

How can I best whitelist Zoom so that the error no longer occurs in the Edge browser?

 

Best regards,

Leon

    Hi, Leon.

     

    I would recommend whitelisting the "zoommtg:" URL schema as it is needed to launch the Zoom app from Edge. I would also strongly recommend to involve your IT support team on this.

     

    This link although for Chrome, might be of interest: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/thread/40189723/whitelisting-external-protocol-handlers-from-chrome-83?hl=en

    Hey ZoomZoom,

     

    thank you for the quick response!

    How do I whitelist the "zoommtg:" URL schema? Unfortunately, the link didn't help me any further...

     

    Best regards,

    Leon
