Zoom assistant - phone widget is not popping up for our power pack user

Hello,

 

We have 3 Zoom power pack users, but one of them does not have the widget for Zoom assistant when they log in to their Zoom app. I checked that the toggle is on and running the latest version (5.14.0)

Did this work and then stop? If yes, this may be relevant.  It is an email I got from Zoom a few days ago:

Make sure is enabled in the Zoom app's settings. 

Seems like the Zoom Assistant toggle in the user's settings in the Web Portal is ignored now as I can turn that off and on and the assistant doesn't change at all. 

Where can I find this setting in the app?

Settings/General/Zoom Assistant

Sorry, really not finding the zoom assistant under General. Could you send a screenshot to show me where it can be found?

 

Thanks!

It is below the Zoom Updates section and above the Theme section

I restarted Zoom, logged out, logged back in, restarted computer, still not there.

Do you have a power pack license? Wondering if that is the issue, though I believe that with the latest releases, powerpack just gives the zoom assistant access to extra widgets for call queues and such.

 

Otherwise maybe de-install and re-install?

Yes, we do have power pack license. The zoom assistant is critical for our CS reps. 

 

Tried uninstall and reinstall, no dice.

Sounds like a bug then, I guess you need to open a ticket with Zoom.

Hi @span 

 

Can you try removing the ZP power pack license and assigning it back to the user ? After that enable it on user settings. Please see if that helps

I believe some of the above is out of sync with reality - I'm pretty sure the web portal no longer has the "desktop power user" setting or is just renamed "Zoom Assistant - Phone".

Right now I have my Web Portal "Zoom Assistant" turned off, and the Zoom app "Zoom Assistant" turned on, and I see the assistant. (I do have powerpack as well). Haven't gone through all the permutations to see what has changed with the weekend release (including using zoom assistant when no zoom phone license).

 

LoL, just found another setting - in Zoom User management for a user (not Zoom Phone Users&Rooms), there is an Settings/Other/Zoom Assistant toggle (that is on for me) and a checkbox for phone. unchecking that box removes the assistant and looks to be sync'd with the Zoom app Zoom Assistant-Phone checkbox.

 

So the Personal/Phone/Settings/Zoom Assistant section looks to be there for just configuring the powerpack widgets in the assistant.

Thank you! This fixed it for me as well.

With that zoom email, I don't understand why they use the phrase "Desktop Power UX", when that is not used anywhere in the web portal or Zoom app that I've seen.

Even their doc https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/4403706346125-Using-the-Desktop-Power-User-experience-Powe... uses "Desktop Power User experience".

But even that is only used there. Everywhere else is called "Zoom Assistant" so I don't know why they made things more confusing by inserting new terminology.

 

And the instructions saying:

  • For specific users: Once released, to change the Zoom Assistanttoggle for a specific user within your account, navigate to Phone System Management > Users & Rooms > [User] > User Settings > Desktop Power User

are not correct, the location is: 

Phone System Management > Users & Rooms > [User] > User Settings > Zoom Assistant - Phone

at least in my zoom web portal!
