How to access the settings for a Zoom Room

  3. Click one of the tabs to filter by rooms or location.
  4. Click Edit next to the room or location you want to change.

    Note: This is not a complete list of all settings that can be changed. 

Rooms Profile tab

  • Room Name: The display name to help you and users in your account identify the room. This name is used in all relevant interfaces including the web portal, room controllers, displays, and the contacts directory in the client/app.
  • Display Name (optional): The display name that is shown on the scheduling display. This allows you to set a shorter display name that doesn't include things like location prefixes. If you leave this option blank, the Room Name is used.

Meeting tab

  • Display top banner on TV in meeting: Display the room name, time or sharing key on the top portion of display by default. Room participants can enable or disable this banner using in-meeting settings. Click the check boxes to select what is displayed.
  • Bypass the password when joining meetings from meeting list: When users join or start a meeting using the meeting list on the controller, they don't need to enter the meeting password (if there's one applied to the meeting). This setting doesn't apply to instant meetings.
