When adding a new online event you will be required to have a Zoom account already set up, preferably a Pro account so that you can have events for more than 40 mins. If you haven't already set up an account, you can do so > Here.
Adding Zoom links
You will need to manually add Zoom Invite links to each date you add. You will see a field to input your Invite link when adding each date. Please note, this is designed for Meetings and not Webinars.
Please make sure to physically highlight and copy your "Invite link" from Zoom. This embeds the meeting ID and passcode (if you have set one) for your meeting into the link, meaning customers won't need to enter any ID or passcode when joining. Do not use the "Copy invitation" button.
Example of Invite link with embedded meeting ID and passcode (if there is one):
You then need to paste into the field in the "Update dates & times" section of the events on your dashboard:
Once added, the link for each event will automatically be sent to every customer so there is no need to send the link out, and you will be able to start the event via a button on your Dashboard.
Please note, you are unable to add regular dates in bulk, as you will need to add each date individually in order to add the different Invite link.
Do I have to use Zoom?
No, it is not necessary to use Zoom as your video conferencing software of choice. Just make sure you are copying and pasting the right link that will directly open the event for the customer, without any further information needed to access.
