How Do I Join a Meeting?

Make sure to log on using Single Sign-On when using the Zoom desktop application.

Each meeting has a unique 9, 10 or 11-digit number called a Meeting ID. It is required to join a Zoom meeting and is provided in the meeting invite. This number is unique to each meeting.

For example, you may see this type of information

This is a Zoom meeting invitation. There is a link to the Zoom meeting, including the Meeting ID, the telephone number for uses who wish to dial in, the SIP information for those using SIP enabled devices and a link to view other information for joining.

Click on the "Join Zoom Meeting" link to be directly connected to Zoom. Clicking on the telephone number will utilize your device's telephone capabilities.
