Zoom Waiting Room and Passcode Requirements

Starting July 19th, Zoom (on Canvas) will require that all meetings have a Passcode or a Waiting Room enabled.

FAQ:

1. What if I don’t have a Waiting Room or Passcode enabled by July 19?
   If neither is enabled, Zoom will enable a Waiting Room for your meetings.
2. How will this affect my calendar invitations when scheduling meetings?
   If you already have a Passcode or Waiting Room on, there will be no change to how you schedule meetings.

**If Passcodes are added, calendar invites for any existing meeting will need to be resent to include the Passcode.**
New meetings will have the Passcode embedded in the meeting link automatically.
