Zoom has made recent changes that make meetings require passwords by default. They've also turned on waiting rooms by default, which require you to manually accept participants into a meeting. To have Fireflies successfully join and capture meetings when a password is required, here is what you need to do.

When inviting Fireflies via calendar invites:

• Include the meeting password on the calendar invite. Example of Default Zoom Format:

  

When inviting Fireflies from the Add to Live Meeting Module:

• If you are using the Add to Live meeting module on app.fireflies.ai, use the Zoom URL that includes the meeting password.

Example of Zoom generated URL with the password included: https://us05web.zoom.us/j/82371900439?pwd=CLht6i1LTp11u6QbJbSeABfXMIbDec.1

• Once you copy-paste the link, click Start Capturing, and Fireflies will join within just a few seconds.

Alternative approaches

• You can modify your Zoom settings and turn off meeting passwords.

Waiting Rooms:

• To have a more seamless experience, you can also disable waiting rooms so that Fireflies can join meetings on time.
