Setting up and Logging into Role-based Zoom Accounts
Zoom meetings should ideally be created under your personal Zoom account however, in specific scenarios, using a role-based account may be the preferred option.
If you believe this might be the case for your purpose, please contact eConferencing (econferencing@otago.ac.nz) to discuss in more detail.
Logging into Zoom with a role-based account will differ from logging into Zoom with your Staff account. There are two ways.
