No App? Join Meeting Through Web Browser

After you sign up for an URMIA meeting that uses Zoom, you will receive an email from the URMIA Office with the Zoom Meeting link, Meeting ID, and Passcode. If you don't have the Zoom app downloaded on your computer, you can join from any web browser, like Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, etc. When you click on the link for an URMIA Zoom meeting, it should take you to a screen that asks you to “Open Zoom Meetings.” You can click the blue "Join from Your Browser" link at the bottom of the screen.

It will take you to a screen that prompts you to sign in with a "commercial" Zoom account, which is any type of account (i.e., Basic, Pro, Business, or Enterprise). Click the blue link that says "sign in."

It will take you to a screen that prompts you to sign in with your username and password. Type those in and click the blue “Sign In” button.

You should now be at the URMIA Zoom meeting. On the screen, you will be prompted to input your audio/video preferences and your display name. Configure these to your liking and then hit the blue “Join” button.

You should now be in the waiting room of the URMIA Zoom meeting, where a lobby video will be playing. You’ll be let in the meeting by the host closer to the meeting start time. Now, you’ve successfully logged into an URMIA Zoom Meeting!
