9. Account Provisioning Settings: If you choose to turn on automatic account creation (see Step 10 below), you can choose the method for automatically creating accounts in these settings.

Zoom offers the following Account Provisioning methods:

  1. Regular creation (create): Users will receive a confirmation email from Zoom asking them to verify their newly created Zoom account. Using the verification link in the email, users will be able to login to their Zoom account and change their password and other profile settings. In most cases, this is the recommended Account Provisioning method, as it will enable your users to access their Zoom account outside the LMS as well, without requiring assistance from a Zoom administrator.
  2. Auto creation (autocreate): Users will not receive a confirmation email from Zoom, and will not need to verify their newly created Zoom account. However, without the Zoom confirmation email, users will require assistance from your institution's Zoom administrator in order to access their Zoom account from outside the LMS.
  3. Creation for integrated use only (custcreate): Users created in this way have no password and will not able to log into the Zoom web site or client. If you would like to use this option, you will need to request Zoom to recognize your account as an "API partner".
  4. Creation for integration with SSO sign in ability (ssocreate): This option is similar to custcreate, but the user will also be able to access the Zoom website via your institution's Identity Provider. If you would like to use this option, you will need to request Zoom to recognize your account as an "API partner" and request to have the "pre-provisioning SSO User" option enabled.


10. After completing the above steps for configuring the Sitewide Settings, you can choose to configure “Per Connection Settings” for each instance for which you wish to setup automatic account creation.
