How to login to Zoom?

Overview

There are multiple methods to logging into your Zoom account using your @uidaho.edu or @vandals.uidaho.edu credentials. 

Note: You do not have a UI Zoom account until you log into Zoom for the first time using your UI credentials.

Application Login

If you have logged into the Zoom application before, you may be automatically signed in under your account.

To login directly into the Zoom application open the Zoom application. Click "Sign In." Click on "Sign in with SSO"

You will then be prompted to enter a domain. Enter "uidaho" into the field. Leave "open in default browser" deselected to stay in the app, and press continue.

 To complete the login process fill out your full email address and follow the prompts to sign in and authenticate to Duo using your UI credentials (as if logging into MyUI). If you are already logged into the device you may automatically skip this step.

At this point you will be logged into the Zoom application. Using the Zoom Workplace home screen, you can click "Join" at the center of the screen to join a meeting

Web Login

The web login for Zoom is good for initially setting up your account and for managing meetings and settings.

Go to https://zoom.uidaho.edu and press "Sign in."

From there you will be prompted to log in with your UI credentials (which are the same credentials you use to log into MyUI or Canvas). Enter your full email address and follow the prompts to sign in and authenticate to Duo.

After logging in you can join a meeting by clicking on the "JOIN A MEETING" link in the upper right and then entering the Zoom meeting ID. (Note: If you have a link for a meeting the last 11 digit number on the link is usually the meeting ID.)

You will then be prompted to open the Zoom application by your browser. Click on "Open Zoom Meetings" to open the Zoom application and join the meeting.
