Connecting Your Academy with Your Zoom Webinars or Meetings Account

In Schoox you can connect your Academy with your Zoom webinars account in order to create Virtual Events. That means that you as an Academy Admin and Event Instructors with the permissions enabled will be able to use one Zoom account for all of your Virtual Events.

To do so, simply navigate to the Admin Workspace and select Settings -> Control Panel in the left navigation bar. In the list of option, find Live Sessions Integration, select Integration with Zoom, and then click on the Connect button next to the Zoom Webinars Account or Zoom Meetings Account option, depending on what you're using.

Last but not least, you are also able to select whether only Admins will be able to use the connected Zoom account, or whether all Event Instructors can.

Under the Zoom Integration tab of your Academy Settings, you will be now able to find the relevant setting.

Select "Yes", if you want only the academy admins to be able to use the Academy Zoom account to initiate events. 

Alternative hosts in Zoom allow for someone specific other than the host to start the meeting. Alternative hosts must have a Zoom account, and that account must be associated with the host's - for example, by belonging to the same corporate Zoom account. To allow alternative hosts in your academy, set this option to Yes.
