Allowing users to contact Zoom Support via Chat
Overview
The Zoom web portal and Zoom help center can be customized so that it displays a Zoom Help badge in the bottom right hand corner when users are signed in to their Zoom account as well as on the Zoom web portal when they are signed in.
You can use Zoom’s chat feature to ask questions and get immediate help if you need it. However, organizations leveraging an internal helpdesk or IT department may prefer to disable Zoom Support chat and direct their account members to their own resources instead. Your Account Profile page allows you to customize your account support information to direct users to your own support resources.
