Zoom license for event organizers

The content on this page was translated automatically.

You only need a Zoom license as the organizer ("host") of a video conference.
The invited participants can join without registering via the link provided by the organizer.
Exception: If the organizer requires authentication to participate in the meeting, a Zoom account is also required.

Activation of a ZOOM license via identity management

Please first log in to Identity Management with your UniAccount.

To do this, enter your user name <ukxxxxxx> and the corresponding password.

Identity management user app

After logging in, please click on "Request access".

Then scroll to the "Services" area and click on the "Manage access to ZOOM" tile.

If nothing happens after this action, your web browser is probably blocking the pop-up window that was supposed to open. Please make sure that your web browser allows the opening of pop-up windows for userapp.uni-kassel.de.

In Mozilla Firefox, for example, you will see a message and an option to allow the pop-up window directly below the address bar.

Here you can also personalize your display name or participate anonymously if you uncheck the "Personalize display name" box.

Both can be adjusted later. Information on how to personalize the display name later can be found in our FAQ. Further information on how to participate in meetings anonymously can be found under Anonymous meeting participation.

You will then be asked to accept the terms of use for Zoom (linked there). Finally, click on "Send".

The IT service desk will be happy to answer any technical questions you may have about ZOOM.
