Automatically start/stop scheduled Zoom Room meetings
Meetings in Zoom Rooms can be scheduled to follow the Google or Microsoft calendars associated with the Zoom Room. Meetings can be set to start automatically at the start of the meeting based on the time set in the calendar, or end based on the time set at the end of the meeting. By using these options, users no longer have to manually start and end in-room meetings by using a controller each time they choose.
