Zoom meeting productivity settings

Editing Zoom meeting settings is not retroactively applied to existing meetings unless they are "legacy" meetings. I do not know at what date newly created meetings stopeed being "legacy" meetings and started being treated as "first class objects" in the Zoom system.

For new meetings you will need to edit their settings starting here: https://uab.zoom.us/meeting.

For legacy meetings, be aware that changing your settings will impact those meetings, so you may need to "unedit" them to restore the original settings you had.

What do I do if I can't find my meeting in the Previous or Upcoming lists?

Find the Meeting ID from the "join meeting" URL, or from within the meeting itself, or anywhere else. These IDs tend to be 11 numeric digits.

Then append the ID to the meeting URL like the following example:
