Can you Elevate or Invite a Call to Zoom Meeting?
When you use the zoom phone trying to make a call then you can smoothly elevate that particular call to the zoom meeting. The following other users can be based on the Zoom desktop client, zoom external phone service, and the zoom mobile app. Remember that, when you are in a zoom meeting simultaneously with the zoom phone call then you can try to switch between or merge the phone call and meeting.
From this article, know about the way of elevating a call to an instant meeting and the invitation procedure to invite a call to the meeting using the meeting URL.
Preconditions for inviting or elevating a call to the zoom meeting.
-
- The zoom mobile application for iOS or Android with a minimum version of 5.2.0 or above.
- Should have a zoom phone license.
- The zoom desktop client version of 5.2.0 or higher for Mac OS, Linux, or Windows.
- Call elevation using the meeting URL would need the mobile app or desktop client of 5.2.0 or higher version.
- The disabled mode for End to end encryption for meetings.
- Elevate a call to a meeting policy setting enabled by your admin.
Remember, The provisioned desk phones would not support the elevating zoom meeting. So, for the workaround role, you can use the call flip mode which will transfer the call to the zoom mobile app or desktop client. Follow this article for elevating the zoom call.
Way of elevating a zoom call to an instant meeting.
Step 1. You have to zoom sign in to the desktop client or mobile app.
Step 2. Choose to make or receive a phone call using Zoom phone.
Step 3. Tap in the meet by using In-call controls.
Remember,
- When the waiting room is enabled option will be enabled for everyone along with an enabled bypassing option then the other call participants would be able to bypass the call.
- When you add the caller to the present call then you can merge the two calls to start the three-way call before elevating the zoom meeting. When you don’t think of merging the call the meeting solely will begin with the active call.
Based on other call participants’ usage of the zoom phone mobile app or desktop client or regular phone line the following scenarios can arise.
- External phone service. Here, using the phone audio, other call participants by default can join the meeting.
- Zoom phone (mobile app or desktop client). When the other zoom call participants accept the invite they automatically can join the meeting. When the zoom user declines, the call will be rejected or terminated.
- Zoom Phone (provisioned desk phone). This ensures the automatic joining of other call participants using the phone audio.
Remember, for an instant meeting and zoom phone calls elevated to a meeting, the waiting room has been disabled by default.
