Joining a Zoom Meeting from Two Devices

As an administrator, you may have encountered situations where you need to allow meet hardware devices to join Zoom calls without the need for host admission. This can be achieved by generating an interop token in the Zoom web portal and adding it to the Google Workspace Admin console.

To join a Zoom meeting using a Meet hardware device, follow these steps:

1. Sign in to the Zoom web portal as an administrator with the privilege to edit Zoom Rooms settings.

2. Enter the meeting password, if one is required.

3. In the Zoom Meeting number, enter the number from the Zoom invitation.

4. Tap the meeting name that includes the subtitle 'Via Zoom.'

5. Enter the room with the Meet hardware device that has a Zoom interoperability (interop) call scheduled.

The Meet hardware device should recognize the Zoom join details and display it on the agenda. Alternatively, users can create their own meeting to invite participants to the conference room.

To prevent participants from getting multiple invitations, remove them from the duplicated event. If the event with Zoom meeting details originated outside of your organization or from a client other than Google Calendar, the user may not have permission to directly add the room.

Once the event is created, the Zoom meeting will appear on the room's agenda. Make sure that the registration required setting is disabled in the Admin console and turn off the Only authenticated users can join meetings setting in your Zoom web portal to enable Meet hardware devices to join a Zoom meeting.

Some Zoom features are not available when using a Google Meet Hardware device to join a Zoom meeting. However, by following these steps, you can successfully join a Zoom meeting from two devices - your computer or laptop and the Meet hardware device.
