April 2, 2022 version 5.10.0 (1217)

New and enhanced features

• General features
  • Support for joining Zoom Events via pairing with Zoom Rooms
    Attendees can start or join live sessions via a Zoom Room that is paired to their Zoom clients on laptops or mobile devices. Start/Join buttons are only accessible on the Zoom client interface. 
  • User interface updates
    The Zoom Rooms user interface (UI) has been updated to provide a more consistent experience. The new UI aligns with the Zoom desktop and mobile clients, matches Zoom’s current branding, and provides an optimized information architecture to better meet user needs. The in-meeting experience has been updated for Windows, Mac, and iPad Zoom Rooms. It has also been updated for Zoom Rooms Appliances and iOS and Android Zoom Rooms controllers. The out-of-meeting experience has been updated for Windows-attached and Web Zoom Rooms controllers. See our blog post for more information. 
  • Removal of Calendar Integration error message
    Previously, when a Zoom Room was not linked to a calendar, a prominent error on the Zoom Rooms Controller home page appeared: "This room needs to be connected to a calendar. Contact your Zoom Rooms admin". This error message has been updated to suggest that connection to a calendar is not mandatory. Organizations that do not wish to connect their Zoom Rooms to a calendar can have their admins hide the upcoming meetings list on Zoom Rooms Controllers, which removes the message completely.
• In-meeting features
  • Live transcription (automated captions) notification
    If saving transcripts (captions) is disabled for the meeting, attendees will be notified.

  • Support for native room controls during a Microsoft Teams Direct Guest Join meeting
• Management features
  • Microsoft calendar authentication notification
    Microsoft plans to disable basic authentication for Microsoft Exchange Web Services for Office 365. If a Zoom Room calendar integration to a Microsoft O365 calendar service encounters authentication errors because of this change, a notification message will display.  Customers are encouraged to update any Zoom Rooms calendar integration with Microsoft O365 to use OAuth instead of basic authentication by re-authorizing their calendar integration in the Zoom admin portal. 
  • Untrusted certificate security warning enhancement
    Additional untrusted certificate security warning details including certificate issuer and connection error code will be displayed on the Zoom Room’s screen. These details will also be included in Zoom Room alerts issued to account contacts, and displayed on the Zoom web portal dashboard.
