1. BEGIN by opening a Firefox Browser
2. Sign in to Blackboard at: https://blackboard.liu.edu
3. Open the course where you would like to add Zoom.
4. Hover over the “+” icon on the upper left corner of your course
   
5. Select “Tool Link” from the drop–down options.
   
6. Name: Enter the title you would like displayed for the Zoom link in your course navigation.
   
7. Type: Select the “Zoom Meeting” option.
   
8. Available to users: Check this option to enable students to view this option.
   
9. Click Submit.
   
10. In your Blackboard Course Navigation, click on the link you created.
    
11. You are now logged into your Zoom Meetings from Blackboard.
    
12. From your Zoom Browser within Blackboard, you can:
    • View Upcoming Meetings
    • View Previous Meetings
    • Schedule Meetings
    • Start Meetings

( DO NOT share your Personal Meeting ID (PID) that may look like this: https://liu.zoom.us/j/3452334234,​ as that has no security layer.  Always Schedule a New Meeting  which will have the proper random meeting pwd.)

1.Enable Meeting Pwd:
We have enabled the mandatory pwd feature to all meeting rooms, what that means that all meetings that will be created or have been created  will need a pwd to get in.
Don’t worry about sending a new link for teaching: if you have scheduled a meeting or recurring meetings through blackboard, all the students will see the proper link to click when they are connecting to zoom from within Blackboard.
For new meetings for office use, please copy and share the long meeting URL with the embedded pwd to share.
This is the most important first step in securing your meetings.
The following steps secures it even more.(Please note,  for each extra level of security that you are enforcing, the access to getting in your meeting gets harder and harder so you have to weigh the benefits)

2.Meeting Options:
We recommend you do the following to secure classes or meeting under the Meeting options(try using the web interface-liu.zoom.us –  to apply the settings):
a) Enable mute participants upon entry
b) Enable Waiting Room (be mindful to let participants in, through the manage participants option on your meeting room window)
c) Enable Only authenticated users can join, which will force all LIU users to join in with their full email address and email pwd login option (on the web login screen, select  log in with SSO).  ON the other hand if you want non LIU users to join, you can turn it off for that scheduled meeting only.

3.Screen Sharing Off for Participants:
In you Settings Tab (on the web-liu.zoom.us-), Select In Meeting(Basic), you’ll see a Screen sharing option to stop anyone except you from sharing your desktops or apps on your computer. You can still grant screen sharing privileges to specific users in a meeting later, if you need to.

4.Lock Meeting:
Another step you can take is to lock a meeting once you’re sure that everyone who needs to join has joined. From the desktop app, click Manage Participants, More, and then Lock Meeting. Just make sure that you weren’t expecting someone who hasn’t yet arrived, as they won’t be able to get in.

5.Meeting Recording:
If the meeting is being recorded, the pop will inform all participants that the meeting is being recorded.
Also shared recordings links cannot be downloaded.

Set Password & Enable Waiting Room

There are two key features that enable you to secure your meetings: Set Up Password and Enable Waiting Room. Set Up Password requires a participant to enter a password to enter the meeting. The Waiting Room feature allows you to control when a participant joins the meeting. These features will help prevent “zoombombing” of your classes. As host, you can admit attendees one by one or all at once.

Set Password & Enable Waiting Room

When scheduling a Zoom meeting in Blackboard ensure that you set the following meeting options:

• (a)Select Require meeting password.
• (b)Input a password or accept the randomly generated number from Blackboard.
• (c)Select Enable waiting room.
• (d)Select Record the meeting automatically.
• (e)Select In the cloud.

Waiting room

Any participant who does not login using their LIU Zoom credentials automatically will be placed in the Waiting Room.

Start Meeting with Waiting Room

1. Start your meeting from the Blackboard and open the Zoom app when prompted.
2. As participants join the call, you will see a pop-up message:
   • To admit a person directly, click Admit.
   • To see all participants in the waiting room, click See waiting room.
   • 
3. In the waiting room panel, perform one of the following:
   • Click Admit All to admit all participants.
   • Click Admit to allow a single participant into the meeting.
   • Click Remove to remove a single participant from the Zoom meeting.
   • 

4. Managing a Meeting

   Once the meeting has started, the meeting room is still active.

   1. If you wish to return a participant to the meeting room:

Zoom offers multiple methods to schedule a meeting. As the meeting host, you have control options for your scheduled meetings.  Meetings can be scheduled from the Zoom desktop and mobile app, from a browser through LIU’s Zoom home page.
