Hi, assuming you own/admin both Microsoft Teams and Zoom Enterprise platforms, is there a way to enable your MTR's to skip the Zoom waiting room and/or start an internal Zoom meeting? What about the same scenario, but with a Zoom Room joining an internal Teams meeting? This is the most common complaint from our users, and I haven't found a way to do this without removing all the security restrictions you'd want unless you're insane.
I have a Teams Room device and I can invite it to join Zoom meetings and it works great! However, while in the Zoom meeting, I am only able to see the video feed from one meeting participant at a time with no way to switch to another video feed/participant. This is similar to the functionality of the Zoom app on a mobile device where you have to swipe left to change the video display to show all participants, but there is no way to do that on the Teams Room device. Any suggestions on how to change this so that all participants are displayed when using Zoom meetings on a Teams Room device?
We've been able to get the Zoom meeting joined in our Microsoft Teams Room, however, we're having an issue with the audio. The speaker works, but not the microphone. We're using a Crestron console. Any suggestions?
Hi very good information shared. Can I present from teams room as well in this setup and if I have dual display in teams room can I see people in one display and content in another display.
We're finding that when you use Teams Room to DGJ a Zoom meeting with a Rally Bar Mini, you do not appear to have the option in Zoom to change from Speaker view to Gallery. Any thoughts on this?
Correct, currently using on MTRoA (android) and it does not give me the option to change the view layout. I'm assuming plugging in a mouse to the rally bar will allow you to click on view layout and change it that way, or using a touch screen.
In testing we found that the Zoom link is required to be in the body of the invitation. Unfortunately, for confidentiality and security we strip that information out when staff book the room. This has created a bit of an issue for those 3rd party integrations and requires the tech team to add the link manually to the Room's calendar. Any thoughts on this? We use Logitech gear for our teams rooms.
Yes..the exact URL is needed. Wouldn't make any sense to strip it out. Apply security at the Meeting level, not at the URL level. Require Passwords, Require a Pin, require authentication, require a waiting room, for example. There are a number of ways to layer multiple levels of security that are a much better way than stripping out the URL.
@Tattooed Nerd regarding security, the issue is not external security but internal. As an example, HR may schedule an interview and include the resume, etc, for the hiring manager AND add the resource to the same invite so the manager knows which Conf room to be in. This is why exchange strips that information out from the invite to the room so others in our organization 5 see potentially confidential information. I'm not sure how to work around without a process change. 🤔
@@drewbleonIT Where would the *body* of an invitation sent to a room system's Resource mailbox ever be exposed to anyone? I haven't seen any systems that expose the body, so that would presumably come down to anyone who might be granted Full Access Delegation. That should narrow it down to a specific and definable set of users that need the unique ability to remove meetings as a booking override. The *subject* is generally the part that's openly displayed and I haven't had any Room System issues mitigating that with -AddOrganizerToSubject $true -DeleteSubject $true in PowerShell.
I'm guessing that about 90% of the time someone needs to join a zoom meeting from a Teams Room, it's a situation where the room was NOT invited to the meeting because an outside party invited an individual in the organization. How can you join a Zoom meeting without a direct invite to the room? I've tried lots of ways to get this to work. It seems that if the invite is just forwarded to the room, it might accept the meeting, but it won't have the join button or the meeting link/info.
I have the same experience. Did you find a solution to this issue, so that a user can forward their zoom invite to a meeting room, and have the meeting room show the "join" button?
Excited to watch this next week,,, Just setup my MS Teams rooms. Cool Stuff!!

We are trying to integrate MS teams with our Zoom Neatboard carts. Does this info translate for this kind of setup as well?

How do you dial meeting without inviting the room.

Did you ever resolve this? Having the same issue.

Does this work with gallery mode now? Using Teams Room with Zoom was so limiting and lack of gallery mode made it even worst.

can we do this with teams room on Android?
Hopefully you got your answer, but yes you can. Some limitations apply.
yes, thanks we can,, @@topcommentchaser
