Import Zoom Rules in the Admin Tool

The Import Zoom Rules function allows Institutional Admins to automate the creation of Zoom Rules on the behalf of their users.

2. Once on the Zoom Recording Log page, click the “Import” button on the top of the page.

3. You can use the sample CSV format file as a template. To do so, click the “download here” link.

4. Follow these instructions to complete the CSV file correctly:

• In the user_unique_id column, enter in the User ID.
• In the course_id column, enter in the name of the Media Library.
• In the zoom_match_value column, enter in the desired Zoom Rule.
• In the zoom_match_type column, enter either the id or topic.
