Using ZDM with Windows devices in Zoom

Are you facing any issue when Using ZDM with Windows devices in Zoom then this article will solve your problem. It is possible to assign updates to Windows devices via the web using Zoom’s mobile device management (ZDM) tool which allows system administrators to manage updates remotely on Windows devices via the Zoom’s mobile device management (ZDM) tool. Update schedules will be used by administrators to determine when patches will need to be installed. As soon as you have selected your operational hours, installations for devices assigned to these active hours will take place outside of the operational hours that you have selected. In addition, you can select certain updates or devices to be ignored, so that specific updates or devices are not updated. The device will automatically be logged into the Zoom Room you have selected from the Zoom Room list on the web once assigned and the Zoom Room is powered on. No activation code, sign-in email address, or pairing code is required for ZDM to work.
