Dear Alexandra,
We can set up a group Zoom account for you and your team, but it has to be attached to a non-UNI email address. All of our individual Zoom login is through SSO and the password is always attached to your UNI, and can't be changed independently just within Zoom.
If you already have a shared email account for your department, we can use that. If so, please provide the email address. If you don't have a shared email ready for use, you'll need to contact CUIMC IT for assistance with that:
305-4357 or 5help@columbia.edu.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Please proceed with using the Zoom account for telehealth visits (https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/ocr-bulletin-3-28-20.pdf). You will receive further communications when the HIPAA compliant accounts are ready.

"300 Download Error" | INC1706305 | In order to resolve this issue, please ensure that you are signed into zoom at https://columbiauniversity.zoom.us .

Selective Access to Recordings | The Zoom Class Session tool does not have built-in settings to selectively provide access to videos. Recordings migrated from the Zoom tool into Panopto are also, by default, available for all members of the course. In order to selectively provide access you'll need to 1) Delete the recordings from the Zoom Class Session Tool and 2) Move the recordings from the Panopto folder into a seperate folder. Then you will be able to selectively provide access to that folder or videos within that folder. Please see the following documentation for assistance with this process.

Restoring Videos | ||
Lost Videos | Restore if possible Inform of policy (INC1561916) | I've restored your videos that were hosted in the Zoom cloud. Please test a few of the video links to ensure proper functionality for you. CUIT policy is to retain cloud-hosted videos for thirty days, after which they are subject to deletion. We keep them in a holding area for restoration for cases like this, but most users never need them restored. Did you have the links published somewhere (such as a Canvas course) for access by others, or were you the only one using them? Either way, we can move them to another hosted space other than Zoom for continued access. Please let me know how you'd like to proceed, or if you have any questions. |
