Zoom is a video conferencing platform that integrates with Canvas and Outlook, allowing users to host video meetings for up to 300 participants and schedule meetings right in the calendar.

The Auburn University Zoom licenses include many features, including:

• control over who enters the meeting
• local and cloud-based recording
• screen sharing to the host or allow others to share their screens as well
• password-protect a Zoom meeting
• put participants into breakout rooms and waiting rooms
• chat, audio, video communication

Please make sure you have created and logged into your auburn.zoom.us  account using your AU sign-on before integrating Zoom into your course. 

1. Click on “Settings” at the bottom-left. 

2. Click the Navigation tab towards the top middle. 

3. Click the three dots next to Zoom and choose “Enable.” If you prefer, you can drag Zoom to a specific place in the navigation bar. Make sure to click save before you leave the page!

4. Zoom will appear on the left either at the bottom of the navigation or where you dragged it to. 

5. When you click Zoom from the Canvas navigation panel you will be brought to an integrated version of Zoom within Canvas. You can then schedule Zoom meetings for your Canvas course. 

If you have never used the Zoom interface before, Zoom has help online to guide you through the process (scroll to “Web”).

6. As the instructor you will see all your meetings in Zoom, students will only see the meetings created for that course through Zoom in Canvas. 

Students can only see Zoom meetings scheduled for the Canvas course. As you can see from the screenshot, no additional meetings appear.

Please Note: For recorded Zoom Meetings please note that Auburn University’s Zoom Cloud Storage Retention is 180 days. 

Zoom is a video conferencing platform that integrates with Canvas and Outlook, allowing users to host video meetings for up to 300 participants and schedule meetings right in the calendar.

In the browser, users can go auburn.zoom.us to sign in using their Auburn University credentials.

In the application, please follow these steps:

1. On the sign-in screen, click Sign in with SSO

2. In the domain field, type “auburn.” Click Continue.

3. Enter your Auburn University credentials.

Auburn offers students and employees a free Zoom account with unlimited use.  A personal Zoom account will only allow you to schedule a meeting for 30-40 miniutes.

How can you determine which Zoom account you are using?

1. Always go to auburn.zoom.us to log into your Zoom account.  If you are given the option to use “SSO” to sign in, that will allow you to enter your Auburn credentials. 

2. If you have a personal Zoom account tied to a personal email, you may have to log out and log in with your Auburn credentials.
3. Once logged in, there are two ways to see which account you are using.
4. In the far right had corner, click your picture or your initials.
5. Click on the photo or initials.  A pop up will show the name, email address, and the word “Licensed” (Auburn account) or “basic” (personal account).

6. Another way to see your license is to use the menu bar on the left side of the screen.

7. Click on “Profile” and you will see information similar to that in step #5.  Again, you are looking for “Licensed” (Auburn account) or “basic” (personal account).

Zoom is a video conferencing platform that allows users to host video meetings for up to 300 participants. In addition to many other features, including integration with Canvas and Outlook, Zoom also allows users to turn on live transcription (closed captioning) for meetings.  

1. Sign in at auburn.zoom.us to edit your settings. 

2. Once you are logged in, click Settings. 

3. Then, under the Meeting tab, scroll down to the In Meeting (Advanced) section.

1. Toggle on Full transcript: Allow viewing of full transcript in the in-meeting side panel.

5. Since enabling Full transcript will also toggle on Save Captions, you will be asked to confirm this change. Press Enable to confirm.
6. You should receive a "Your settings have been updated" pop-up at the top of the page informing you that your changes have been saved.

If you're a Host in a Zoom meeting and a Creator in a Panopto folder, you can integrate the two so any class recording in Zoom will go to the corresponding class folder. This process is called mapping. 

Please make sure the following has been completed before you attempt mapping: 

• Enable Zoom and Panopto in your Canvas course(s).
• Create your Zoom meeting(s) that will be mapped to your Panopto folder(s). 

1. To begin, click on Panopto in one of your Canvas courses and click on the arrow to open the full Panopto website.

2. On the Panopto website, click your initials in the top right corner. At the bottom of the drop-down menu click User Settings. 

3. On the Info tab, you will see “Meeting Import Settings” towards the bottom, click “add new”. 

4. Enter your Zoom Meeting ID for your class session then choose the class folder from the dropdown menu. Click Save!
