How to login to Zoom?

Summary

Instructions on how to log into Zoom.

Body

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." On the login page select "SSO".

Entering your email address and password on this page will not work with UI accounts!

You will then be prompted to enter a domain. Enter uidaho into the field and click Continue.

At this point the Zoom application will open your default browser 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 browser you may automatically skip this step.

You will then be prompted to open the Zoom application in your browser. Click on "Open Zoom Meetings" (or similar verbiage if using a different browser than Chrome) to complete the login process.

At this point you will be logged into the Zoom application.

Update: 

If you use the email sign-in option with your @uidaho.edu or @vandals.uidaho.edu account, enter some text in the password field (it doesn't have to be your password at this stage), and hit Sign In you will be automatically directed to the SSO login as above. In some cases this may be slightly faster.

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.
