Account Settings – Zoom Help Center

Overview

Account Settings allows you turn settings on or off for all users in your account. You can also lock settings on or off to force them on or disable them for all users.

The Account Settings mirror the settings available for groups and for individual users. If not locked for the account or group, they can be adjusted by the individual user. Read more about Tiered Settings.
