In the All Contacts section of the Zoom contact directory, you can find internal users that you have added to the same Zoom account and organisation. In order to avoid that users in the same Zoom account and organization can see the names of everyone on the account and organization, administrators/owners of Zoom Pro or higher accounts can turn off the setting Company Contacts in IM settings.
Account administrators and owners can also decide whether their users will be able to add or chat with outside contacts.
Zoom users from outside of Zoom can be added as contacts if you specify their email address. The moment they accept your contact request, you will be able to chat, share files and images, and meet as soon as you approve the request. There will be an email invitation sent to those who have not registered for a Zoom account, if you add their email address.
You can also connect another Zoom account with another third-party service, sync your contacts with a third-party service, or use the Zoom app on your phone to view your phone’s contacts. It is also possible to use a channel to communicate with a group. By default, direct messages can only be sent to channel members if they are already in your contact directory.
Your external contacts can be viewed and removed by the administrator.
