- To schedule a meeting, click on 鈥淢eetings鈥� in the left-hand column.
- Click 鈥淪chedule a New Meeting.鈥�
- Fill in the form. We recommend maintaining your current class schedule. For example, if your class traditionally meets in-person at 10 a.m. on Tuesday and Thursday, you should schedule your Zoom class for 10 a.m. on Tuesday and Thursday.
- To schedule a recurring meeting or class, click in the 鈥淩ecurring Meeting鈥� box.
- Click 鈥淪ave鈥� at the bottom of the screen.
2. How do I invite participants?
We recommend that you invite participants using an Outlook calendar invitation. You can add participants from within a meeting, but you need to use their 性奴调教 Net IDs (their 性奴调教 usernames with @slu.edu on the end and not their newer, O365 email addresses).
1. What is the difference between a co-host and an alternative host?
A co-host can be added within a meeting. Co-hosts can assist with administering the meeting, such as adding participants, monitoring the chat and starting/stopping the recording.
Alternative hosts, however, must be added when the meeting is created. They can open and end meetings if the host is unable to.
2. How do I assign a co-host?
Within your meeting:
- Click on "Manage Participants" at the bottom of the Zoom window
- Hover over the name of the participant you want to co-host
- Select "More"
- Click "Make Co-Host"
3. How do I add an alternative host for a meeting?
Alternative hosts can be added when scheduling a meeting. You can add alternative hosts in the "Alternative Host" entry box. You must use their 性奴调教 username (for example, username@slu.edu) and not their O365 email address (for example, first.last@slu.edu).
4. I've been added as an alternative host for meetings. Will I be able to see the meeting in my Zoom calendar?
No. The meeting will not display in your "Upcoming Meetings" in the Zoom desktop client or the mobile app for alternative hosts.
5. If I am the host, can I leave a meeting without ending a meeting?
Yes. When clicking "End meeting," the system will give you a pop-up with options to "End Meeting for All" or "Leave the Meeting."
6. Can anyone record a meeting?
Yes, but only if you are the the host (or if the host grants you permission). There are two options for saving the recording:
- To the cloud.
- To your local machine. If you save to the local machine, the recorded meeting will download to a folder on your hard drive. We recommend changing the folder that stores the videos to one that is easy to remember. Also, recordings stored locally may not show up in the recordings/local recordings area of the Zoom control panel. Cloud recordings will.
7. How do I mute or unmute all participants in a meeting?
- Select "Manage Participants"
- Click "Mute All"
You will be prompted to "allow participants to unmute themselves." Clicking "Continue" will mute all current and new participants.
