I have had my discussion apparently "solved" which is why I am starting a new one, it wasn't solved at all

 

I know how to share a URL link to external users in a zoom meeting, however to use it (in their breakout rooms) they are still being asked to login to their zoom account. ~see attached image.

 

I deliver training on Zoom to healthcare professionals who often use a work computer and can not login to zoom and have to do everything through their browser. 

 

HOW can a non zoom account holder in a meeting edit the whiteboard with the link????

 

thanks

students editing whiteboards outside of the zoom session

I'm having trouble setting up the whiteboard such that my 11 yr old students can access and edit the whiteboard outside of our Zoom class time.  

 

I have selected anything in settings that looks like it would allow me to do this.  But, in the whiteboard sharing default section of the settings, it won't let me select "anyone" can access.  It says "your admin has disables this setting" but I am the admin and I don't see another place where I can enable it.

 

I have tried sharing the link to the whiteboard in my Google Classroom.

 

Does the student need to have a Zoom account in order to access the whiteboard outside of class?  Do they need to use the same email address to sign into their Zoom account that they use when they click into our Zoom class?

 

 

Thanks so much!

I have multiple whiteboards that I've created. There are now a number of them that say View Only and I cannot make any edits to them, even though I created them. I have searched and cannot find any way to fix this. I need to be able to access and edit these whiteboards. I use them with clients. I have some that still allow me to edit. I don't know why some do and some don't. Thank you.

Can I buy the whiteboard plan for $2.49 a month while I am on the basic free tier plan so that I can only use the whiteboard feature and create more than 3 boards?

 

While I was trying to buy, it was asking me for number of licenses. What does number of licenses mean?

 

My expectation is that if I buy a license, then I should be able to free create how many ever boards I want, share them with other individuals and they should be able to edit those boards. Is that possible under the $2.49 whiteboard plan?

I use a Lenovo Ideapad computer, have the latest version of Zoom, and use the whiteboard for educational purposes. Every time I insert a video into the whiteboard, it doesn't allow playback; I have to stop sharing the whiteboard, go to YouTube, show the video, and then go back to sharing the whiteboard. Why does this happen?

Hi all, this is my first post on here and hoping you experts in the room can help.

 

I'm setting up Whiteboards in advance for facilitation during meetings.  When I share it, the images resize and move and it doesn't stay how I set it up so have to spend time moving it.  

 

Is there anyway to avoid this happening?

 

Thanks in advance 🙂

I'm using Version 6.1.12 on a PC and everything is working great, except I can't paste an image onto the whiteboard during a session that I am hosting.  If I open the same whiteboard after a session, I am able to paste onto it.  I use screenshots all the time and have never had a problem with it, but when I try it during a session, nothing happens.  What's worse, other participants in the session are able to take a screenshot (Windows-Shift-S) and paste it onto a whiteboard (Ctrl-V) without any problem.  Help!

Sharing a Zoom whiteboard after session is over; Zoom says administrator won't let me; I am admin

I want to share my Whiteboard with my students AFTER the session is over. I am able to share it with them during the session. I want them to have access to it later. Zoom says I can share it only with participants who are in my organization, as determined by my administrator. But I have no organization. I am a solo private tutor who uses Zoom. I am the administrator. 

 

How do I, as the administrator of my Zoom account, allow myself to share Whiteboards at the end of the session?

 

Thanks!
