Once the Zoom LTI has been activated to your NetID in your course, you can begin scheduling meetings. Scheduled meetings created in this Zoom LTI will automatically add to the course Calendar for everyone in the course.

From the Course Navigation Menu, click Zoom.

For this example, we'll make a recurring class zoom meeting: every Tuesday/Thursday from 8:00am - 9:20 am through the rest of the semester.

Add any special options you wish, such as a passcode or waiting room, muting participants upon entry, etc. These features work just like the regular Zoom interface. Click Save when finished.

Example recurring meeting scheduling

Your scheduled meetings will now display in your "Upcoming Meetings" tab in the Canvas Zoom interface. You can return here to start your meeting when ready by clicking on the "Start" button next to your selected meeting. You can also edit and delete meetings from this interface as well.

Viewing Meetings in your Zoom Web Interface

Zoom meetings created in Canvas are also displayed on the meeting organizer’s TxState Zoom web portal as usual, in addition to any other scheduled meetings. Meetings can be started/hosted from any Zoom interface (Canvas, web portal, app) where the meeting is displayed.

📓 Take Note:

Your Canvas-created Zoom meetings will only show in Canvas within the course they were created in. If you teach more than one course, you won't see other zoom meetings from your other courses in Canvas, but you will see all of your Zoom meetings in the TxState Zoom web portal.
