Enabling public event list
The Zoom platform has an option which allows calendaring for Zoom meetings and webinars to appear on your vanity URL’s public calendar for a period of at least 12 months. Once scheduled, public meetings and webinars will be accessible on your calendar for that period of time. By clicking a link in the list, users from inside or outside their Zoom account are able to see the meeting and webinar list, and they can join or register for the meeting or webinar directly.
The following requirements must be met in order to enable the public event list:
- Whether it is a business account, an enterprise account, or an educational account
- the vanity URL must be approved
- For the option to appear in the web portal, it must be enabled by support. Upon contacting support, the feature will be enabled within a maximum of 3 business days after the request has been made.
