How to manage meeting and webinar registration
In webinars and meetings with registrations, hosts can review and manage their registrants before the webinar or meeting starts. This way they can ensure that unwanted guests are not let into the meeting, they can gauge how many participants will likely attend, and they can prepare for what is to come. By using a manual approval process, they can grant or deny registrants, revoke all approved registrations, or even send an email confirmation to registrants again.

If you click the link below, you will see a list of those who have registered for the event. If you choose to use the following options, there will be three categories for you to choose from: pending approval, approved, and denied/blocked.

If the participant entered incorrect information during registration, they may need to register again with the correct information.
Resending and accessing confirmation emails
In the event that a registrant has been approved, Zoom will send them a confirmation email (unless the host has disabled this) which contains their unique join link and other relevant information to facilitate their participation in the event. A Zoom host is able to access anyone’s email who has not received their email, either to copy the information and send it with the help of another service, or to send that email again with the help of Zoom.
