The Meeting Usage Report in Zoom is a valuable tool for administrators and hosts, providing insights into registration, submitted Q&A, poll responses, and post-meeting surveys.
If your Zoom meeting incorporates any of these features, you can generate a detailed report for analysis. Follow these steps to create a Meeting Usage Report:
Here are some important notes regarding Zoom meeting reports:
- To create reports, a paid account must host meetings. Upgrading your account will not generate reports for meetings hosted before the upgrade.
- Meeting IDs are automatically deleted 30 days after the scheduled date or the date last used. They are also removed from the “Previous Meetings” page in the web portal. This deletion is equivalent to manually deleting the meeting. Registration reports associated with the ID are also deleted, while polling reports remain available for up to 12 months.
- If you delete a meeting from your “Meetings” list in the web portal, you cannot generate reports for that meeting. However, any reports generated before deleting the meeting will still be accessible.
- It is recommended to generate meeting reports 30 minutes after the meeting has ended. If a report is generated before starting the meeting, it is advisable to re-generate the report to include data collected during the meeting. Only polling reports can be generated during the live session, but this must be done after the poll has concluded.
Here are the prerequisites for generating meeting usage reports in Zoom:
- Subscription Plan:
- You must have a Pro, API Partner, Business, or Education plan to access meeting usage reports.
- Host or Scheduling Privilege:
- You need to be the host of the meeting or have assigned scheduling privileges with reporting access.
- Role with Usage Reports Permission:
- Your role must have the “Usage Reports” permission enabled to generate meeting reports.
- Account Owner or Admin Privileges:
- To access usage reports for all users, you must have account owner or admin privileges.
For Live Poll Report Generation:
- Zoom Desktop Client:
- To generate live poll reports, you need the Zoom desktop client for Windows, macOS, or Linux, with the global minimum version or higher.

Zoom Meeting usage report types
Registration report
By default, the registration report in Zoom includes the following information for registered participants:. However, additional information may be present depending on your registration settings:
- First and Last Name
- Email Address
- Date and Time of Registration
- Approval Status
When generating a registration report, you have the option to customize the report content. You can choose to include all registrants, only approved registrants, or only denied registrants, providing flexibility in tailoring the report to your specific needs.
The polling report in Zoom provides detailed information about participants who answered a poll question, and the content of the report depends on your meeting settings. Here is what the polling report typically includes:
- If Registration was Turned On (and Poll was Not Anonymous):
- Participants’ names
- Email addresses
- Each poll question and the participant’s answer
- Date and time of the submitted answers
- If Registration was Not Enabled:
- Profile names of unauthenticated participants
- Names and email addresses of authenticated participants
- Each poll question and the participant’s answer
- Date and time of the submitted answers
- If the Poll was Anonymous:
- “Anonymous” will be displayed for participants’ names and email addresses.
Note:
If a poll is relaunched in a meeting, the polling report will only display the last occurrence of the poll. To capture data from multiple launches of the same poll, consider creating a second poll with the same questions to avoid relaunching. This way, you can have separate sets of data for each occurrence.

The survey report in Zoom provides an overview of responses collected from post-meeting surveys. It includes information on the feedback and responses submitted by participants. Specific details within the survey report typically include:
- Responses to post-meeting survey questions.
- Individual participant responses to survey questions.

Q&A report
The Q&A report in Zoom displays the questions and corresponding answers from a meeting. This report is a valuable resource for hosts and administrators to review participant inquiries and responses. The information typically included in the Q&A report encompasses:

- The host or chosen panelists answer questions.
