Resolved! Require participant ID for call-in from webinar?

We conduct training webinars, and we notice that attendees who encounter computer audio issues and decide to switch to joining by phone instead are allowed to skip entering the participant ID shown on the screen when they call in. (The phone instructions say "... Enter your participant ID followed by pound. Otherwise, just press pound.")

 

If the attendee skips entering their participant ID, they are listed twice in the attendee panel--once under their computer-based session and again with their phone number. They're also listed twice in any post-webinar attendee reports.

 

Finally, with hundreds of attendees in a training webinar, it poses potential security issues by making it difficult for the host to fully remove an attendee who has called in (both instances of the attendee), because there's no way to determine which phone number is associated with their computer session in the attendee list.

 

So, if an attendee is joining by phone after they have joined a webinar, we want to require them to enter the participant ID.  Is there a webinar-level or Zoom account-level setting that would allow us to require the participant ID for such attendees? In other words, we don't want the attendee to hear the "Otherwise, just press pound" statement in the recorded phone instruction.

 

(We are aware that attendees who call in before joining the Zoom by computer won't have a participant ID to enter, so this issue doesn't apply to them. However, we think the majority of attendees probably click the link to join before calling in.) 

 

Thank you in advance for any guidance,
Lisa

hey

 

So, I have integrated Zoom Webinar with SFDC and tested it as well. I still got couple of confusion though if someone could please help:

 

1: How can I segment registrants by “attended” and “did not attend” in SFDC, is it done automatically by zoom or I need to do something about it?

2: How to know (after webinar) if someone has submitted the Q&A?

 

appreciate the help and thanks in advance, thanks!

Authentication exception for Zoom webinars

Are we able to add an Authentication exception for zoom webinars? If I wanted to add in an outside user to host a webinar training, How would I go about that?

Resolved! Is the number of webinar registrations tied to the licence type?

We are wondering whether we need a Webinar 500 or Webinar 1000 licence. 


I have a user expecting more than 500 registrations for a webinar, but this person sure that far from everyone will participate live. Will the 500th registration get a notification that the webinar is full or can they still just register?

Resolved! Zoom webinars for a Zoom Pro plan user

Help me figure out: If some already has a Zoom Pro plan, and now that person needs a Zoom Webinar plan of 500 people, does he need to pay extra?

I would like to limit the email addresses people can use to register for a Zoom webinar.  For example, I only want people with the email domain "@cooldomainname.com" to be able to register, and I don't want anybody with the domain name "@gmail.com" to register.  Is this possible?  I saw I can block certain domain names from registering, but I can't find a way to whitelist the domain names I want.  Thanks!

Hi, 

I tested a webinar with a co-host last week, and the sound worked.

 

Just did the real event and my co-host could not hear me. Using a Mac, I selected computer audio, I tested the audio (hearing) and speaking and it worked.

 

I had re-started my Mac prior to the zoom webinar

 

Why could I not be heard?

Why was the Chat disabled, we have never had that before.

 

Thanks

Emma

Complete newbie, wanted to record a webinar (i think) and just don't get it-

I was sent a link to watch my daughter on a kind of graduation ceremony from her college. I do have a basic Zoom account which i established in case i ever needed it and is active. Reading the instructions i am told to go to settings, Recording and click on Local Recording to toggle.

 

Two big problems: First, when i follow the link i was sent, there is no Settings icon on which to click, but strangely at the start there is an automated announcement "Recording in Progress". No idea what that tells me - if it is notification that i somehow am acquiring a recording or if it just tells me that the host is recording. I did check the directory where my settings said my recordings would be stored but that is empty.

Second: If instead i open my desktop client, and please keep in mind that if i do that, i have no idea how i would marry the desktop client to joining the broadcast (if that is the right word), though i can click on Settings, then click on Recording, clicking on "Local Recording" does absolutely nothing that i can see - no indications that i have engaged nor disengaged anything.

 

I'm afraid that i need the big little words with pictures version as to how to accomplish this as i don't want to mess up next time such an occasion rolls around. Can anyone direct me to such?
