You can connect your Teams account to your Zoom account by using the Connect command. If you are using a paid Zoom license and your Microsoft Teams email address matches your Zoom address, this step is not necessary. The Connect command allows you to link your accounts together, but if you have a free account or your email addresses do not match, then you may need to sign up for one.

2. You will receive a message asking you to Sign In. Please click the Sign In button.
3. Note: Before you click Sign In, make sure you’re logged in with Single Sign-on in another tab before you sign in with Zoom.
4. After you have confirmed your accounts, you will be taken to Zoom’s Sign In page.
5. In your Zoom channel, you will be notified that you have successfully signed in.
