Zoom: Creating and Sharing Zoom Meetings for Brightspace

Creating and Sharing a Zoom Meeting in Brightspace

Zoom meetings must be created through the Zoom website. Once you have scheduled your meeting, you can copy the meeting link and share it with students in Brightspace.

The easiest type to create is a recurring meeting with no fixed time.

1. Schedule Your Zoom Meeting

Sign in to the Zoom website and schedule a new meeting. Enter the meeting topic, date, time, and any other settings you require.

Zoom provides step-by-step instructions for scheduling a meeting:

2. Copy and Share the Meeting Link

After saving the meeting in Zoom, copy the meeting invitation or meeting link.

You can then share the link with students by:

• Adding it as a link within a Brightspace content unit
• Including it in a Brightspace announcement
• Sending it directly to students through your usual course communication method

Trouble Signing In to Zoom?

If you have not signed in to the Zoom website before, or you cannot remember your password, you may need to request a password reset.
