Issue
What security settings should I use on my Zoom Personal Meeting Room? How do I set them?
Resolution
For Personal Meeting Rooms, U-M ITS recommends using a Waiting Room so you can control who can join and when. If you only expect U-M students, faculty, and/or staff in your Personal Meeting Room, you can also use Authentication (Require authentication to join>University of Michigan Users). Use multiple security options for added security.
- Navigate to https://zoom.umich.edu/meeting and login if prompted
- Click the Personal Room tab at the top of the page
- Click Edit
- To set a Waiting Room: Check the box next to Waiting room in the Security section
- To set Authentication: Check the box next to Require authentication to join in the Meeting Options section, and ensure that University of Michigan Users is selected in the drop-down
- To set a Passcode: Check the box next to Passcode in the Security section and enter the passcode you would like to use
- Click Save
Passcode Note: If you only use a Passcode, anyone with the Passcode can join at any time.
