Webinars

How can I change the name of the sender that appears when participants receive their registration confirmation? Last year it was possible to change both the sender and the email address, now only the email address can be changed, but not the sender. Is there a solution for this without changing the account name?

Hello,I have a small issue with the Zoom API. When retrieving the participants of a webinar, one of them does not have a “last_name” field. However, this field is required to join our meetings/webinars.What’s even more confusing is that, when retrieving the participant list through your interfaces, the person does have a last name.How is this possible?

Description: Hello, I am experiencing an issue with the Zoom desktop client on Linux Mint. The client launches without errors, but when I try to join a meeting, nothing happens — the connection does not start, and no error messages appear.Details: Zoom version: installed from .deb package (latest official version). All dependencies are installed (ldd /usr/bin/zoom shows no missing libraries). Audio devices are recognized

I am receiving spam webinars every day, and there's no way to stop them. I have already unsubscribed from all Zoom Webinars emails, but I continue to receive them.  I have also reported these webinars, but Zoom does not take any action against them. Can anyone from Zoom explain why you don't take any action against them? Webinar ID828 4602 3920Passcode186270

I recorded a webinar and it was saved to my local computer, not the cloud as I did not realize I had to indicate the location. I would like to share a link for it. Is it possible for Zoom to provide a link? Can I upload it to the cloud and then get a link?  Thanks. 

I am hosting a webinar but do not want attendees to be able to see/use the "raise hand" button. How do I remove that option for a webinar? Also, is it possible to prevent other panelists from seeing the # of participants/attendees and their names? Thank you

Hi,I have been looking into the possibility of using the annotation function in webinars. Looking at the compassion between webinars and meetings it shows that this is possible but I haven't been able to make this work.  Is this an option? If so what am I doing wrong? Thanks,Jordin

During 2025, we have been paying $168 for the Zoom Webinars | 1,000 Attendees – Promotion plan. I would like to ask whether there will be an increase in this fee for 2026.

I am going to run a series of trainings and want to pull attendance reports for each training session. If it is a recurring webinar, can you pull individual-level reports per session, or is it all in one report for all of them together?

Hi, a couple weeks ago I created a webinar (as per normal process - nothing different). And that usually creates a registration link which I normally share with my registrants so they can join on the day. But once the webinar started, I noticed we only had 3 participants (normally we have 50+) and so I went and tested the link that was sent to registrants. And the link was leading to another webinar with the exact same title and exact same settings....just a different ID. Can someone help me understand how in the world this could have happened if I only had one webinar created?  Thanks!

I am trying to embed a Zoom Webinar registration form onto a page on our website using an iframe.To make the embed look seamless and match our site's branding, I need to completely hide Zoom's default header and footer on the registration page.The technical method to hide these elements is using the Custom CSS tab under the Zoom Admin Portal to Advanced to Branding.However, this Custom CSS tab is currently NOT visible in my admin account.

A weird issue that has only just started this week in a large corporate environment which appears to implicate Zoom’s Cloud Room Connector for both Webinars and Meetings:- laptop to laptop - music AOK- ⁠laptop to Cisco - music not ok with original music mode making no difference- ⁠Cisco to laptop - music not ok with Cisco’s noise cancelling, Neutral and Music selections making no difference- Cisco to Cisco over Zoom - music also not ok Anyone else hearing recent Cloud Room Connector music issues? Have you guys seen any issues this week? I’m wondering if it is actually a new Zoom fault. I’ve seen it on multiple meetings and webinars in different locations.

Zoom allows spammers to promote products by hosting webinars and adding participants. Despite reporting these webinars to the trust and safety team, no action has been taken. Why hasn't any action been taken against these spammers? The problem is worsening daily with more spam webinars emerging.

Hello! What setting is it in Webinar to make it so the attendees don’t see the black squares of the cohosts when their camera is off during:1. the live session2. a hardrive recordingWhenever I feel like I have this conquered something changes and bam, same issue, Thanks!

I hosted a zoom meeting recently and (stupidly) did not manually save the chat prior to closing the meeting. For many recent webinars, the chat automatically popped up in a folder when the meeting closed - but that didn't happen this time. Is there a way to recover the chat from this meeting that I was host of? I do not think that the autosave feature was turned on. I did check my documents/zoom folder on my computer and it is not there (though several other chats are!).

Scenario: Webinar with an English to Spanish Interpreter. Spanish speaking attendee that has selected the Spanish Interpreters audio channel. Question: Can the Spanish speaking attendee enable CC and see the Spanish Interpreters audio channel in CC? So for example if the translator hears "five" from the original audio channel and then translates that to "cinco" the CC for our Spanish speaking attendee shows "cinco". Note: While testing, our Spanish speaking attendee with CC enabled could only see CC from the original audio channel. So for example if the translator hears "five" from the original audio channel and then translates that to "cinco" the CC for our Spanish speaking attendee shows "five". Thanks in advance for you help.

Hi, I needed to join a zoom meeting/webinar from a logitech device which requires me to input the meeting ID and passcode.The invite link we received is using a TK code instead of a passcode. In doing some searching, it seems this is a token used webinars. Is there any way to join this webinar from a device which is unable to join meetings via the link and instead requires manually inputting the meeting ID and passcode as the only connection method?

I am setting up a webinar and want to adjust the order of the registration questions. I'm using default and custom questions. Is there a way to do this?

HiI have tried to read through previous discussions and find some answers, but I cant seem to understand why I can not choose to record my group meetings with gallery view? I can not simply find in my settings that particular place I could choosethat even as an option.So I read from previous discussions that people have ticked yes to Record Gallery view with shared screenRecord active speaker, gallery view and shared screen separately - and have only checked yes to gallery view and shared screen.Where can i find these options? I cant seem to find any answers elsewhere Many ThanksSanna

When recording (or streaming to YouTube) webinars, the branding name tags are HUGE and when multiple people are on screen do not scale properly, and obscure the view of those on camera. This used to not be an issue. The change happened sometime between - Jan 10, 2025 (last good looking recording with scaled name tags) and Jan 24, 2025 (first bad name tag scaling).  Please advise.

Hi everyone! 👋I’m looking for some fresh inspiration on how to make webinars feel more dynamic and less like a one-way presentation. I’ve been hosting sessions regularly, and while the content is strong, I feel there’s still room to make the experience more engaging, memorable, and enjoyable for attendees.I’m especially curious about the format and flow of webinars that have worked well for you. Have you tried more conversational styles, panels, live Q&A throughout instead of at the end, or more visual storytelling instead of slide-heavy presentations? I’m also interested in whether you’ve experimented with things like open discussion moments, quick interaction segments, or inviting attendees to influence the direction of the session in real time.What I’d really love to hear are real experiences: something you tried that made the webinar noticeably more lively, or even things that didn’t work and what you learned from them. If you’v

Hi! We're hoping for some advice/best practices- anything would be great. Situation:1. We have a webinar scheduled for "date a" with 100+ registrants. 2. We need to reschedule this webinar to "date b". 3. All registrants have already received an email confirmation with the information for "date a" and they need to be updated with an email for "date b".  What is the best way to handle this? If we change the webinar date, will registrants be notified and/or can we control the email that they receive?  Would love recommendations, we can't seem to find any info on this.  Thanks!

Hi! Looking for some guidance or best practices on rescheduling a recurring webinar when attendees have already added it to their calendars.Situation:We created a recurring Zoom webinar (even though the sessions weren’t happening at regular intervals) so registrants could sign up once for both sessions.The first webinar has already taken place.The second webinar was originally scheduled for 13 November.We needed to move the second session to 20 November, so we edited just that occurrence in Zoom, we did not create a new webinar.Registrants already received the automatic Zoom confirmation email for 13 November, including the auto-generated calendar invite link.After changing the date, the Zoom calendar entry on attendees’ calendars did not update, they still have the original 13 November date.When we resend the confirmation email, attendees do not

My organization has hundreds of recordings from weekly webinars over the years. Is it possible to generate a transcript for these existing recordings and if so, how would I do this. All my searching only leads to generating transcripts going forward and the answers do not seem to be applicable to this specific use case.  Thanks
