Many people find it easy to connect online with video conferencing services like Zoom. If you are planning to host a meeting at work or for a business proposal, Zoom makes it possible. Now, you can also add a registration to your next Zoom meeting.
Prior to joining the meeting, your participants will need to register first.
Why Enable Registrations in your Zoom Meetings?
The benefit of setting up a registration process in your Zoom Meetings is to allow you to know who your participants are beforehand.
During the registration, participants will need to register their names, email addresses, and other information that you have set. It will allow you to use these data to create a better connection with your participants.
Enabling a registration will also restrict entry in your meeting. Only those who have registered can join your meeting. You may manually approve the registration of your participants or you can automatically set the approval of anyone who registers to your meeting.
How to Enable Registration in Scheduled Zoom Meetings
NOTE: Only licensed Zoom users have the ability to add participant registrations. If you don’t see the option, you might need to get a Zoom license.
- Open the Zoom web portal.
- Select Meetings. You can choose an existing meeting or you can schedule a new meeting with registration.
