How to link accounts in Zoom App – Facebook, Google, Email
In order to create an account with Zoom, you need to use a Google or Facebook account, or you can use an email and password. It is possible to link your account to a method which you did not initially choose if for some reason you desire to add another method of accessing your account.
- For users who have created their accounts through Google or Facebook, please use the same email address used to create the account as part of your Google or Facebook account.
- The easiest way to link your account with your Google or Facebook account is to use the same email that you used when you created it.
