My job is to translate geek-speak into clear and concise advice and give you easy-to-understand how-to's and instructions about your consumer technology products and services.īrowse my library with over 1,000 of the types of questions and answers we all have about our consumer technology. Hi! I'm Chris Gardner, Your Tech Coach giving you Practical Help for Your Digital Life® since 1996. This can be a lot of work for big zoom meetings and webinars, so they force the attendees to take that extra step (log into a zoom meeting). That option switch keeps zoom-bombers out, and with that option turned off (as I have it), the meeting organizer may have some work to keep zoom-bombers off if they join. When the sender is managing a lot of zoom meetings, the chances increase that one of the invitees either inadvertently, accidentally, or unthinkingly shared the invitation (say on social media or somewhere else), making the meeting vulnerable to zoom-bombers. Meeting organizers turn this on to try to prevent zoom-bombing (where someone who’s not invited joins the meeting because they found the link for the meeting somewhere). There’s another switch on that settings page that may be turned on – “only authenticated meeting participants and webinar attendees can join meetings and webinars”. There are a lot of settings, but near the top there are security items to turn on or off, such as one-click joining links for meeting invitations (where the meeting passcode is embedded in the link). After you’ve joined a meeting, click the ‘Information’ icon on the top left corner of the Zoom meeting screen.In this situation, the meeting organizer logs into their account settings at. There is also an alternate way on the Zoom Desktop app to get meeting ID and password of an ongoing meeting. You can then share the Zoom meeting ID and password extracted from the invitation details with the relevant people to invite them to the meeting. We’ll only need the Meeting ID and Password details from the whole bunch.
