Learn how to allow only those with Cal Poly accounts, specifically a @calpoly.edu email address, to enter your Zoom meeting.
When scheduling a meeting
Under Advanced Options, make sure Only authenticated users can join > Cal Poly Only is selected. If some of your attendees are not from Cal Poly, you will need to uncheck this setting for them to enter the meeting or require them to Sign in to Zoom.
Via User Settings
You can also adjust this setting by going to your user settings and scrolling down to Only authenticated users can join meetings.
- When logging in to Zoom, if you are asked to enter an email and password, use your Cal Poly email and password. If you are given the option Login with SSO, select it and enter "calpoly" as the company domain.
- If students are not logged into their Zoom account with a @calpoly.edu email address, they may not be able to log into the meeting or properly access breakout rooms or other Zoom features.
- Affiliates, emeritus, and student applicants receive a basic Cal Poly Zoom account which has limited functionality.
