Overview

Zoom is a tool used by Asbury University Faculty and Staff to schedule meetings and teach online classes. If you would like to learn how to schedule a live Zoom session for a course you are teaching, please see these instructions on using Zoom in Discovery. This document will cover how to start a live meeting or schedule out a meeting outside Discovery. If you would like to have a meeting with colleagues, individuals outside of the university, or schedule online office hours, please continue following these instructions.

How to Login to Zoom

If this is the first time you are using Zoom through your Asbury account you will need to go to asburyu.zoom.us and click "Sign In" to configure your account.

You should always be signing in, scheduling, or joining meetings through the asburyu.zoom.us URL. However, if you ever find yourself on the zoom.us homepage, it is possible to sign into the zoom.us site, but it takes a few more steps which are shown below.

1. Click "sign in" on the top right

2. Choose "Sign in with SSO" under the username and password fields (do not fill those out.)

3. You will be prompted for your company domain and that is "asburyu."

4. Now that Zoom knows your license is through Asbury, it will direct you to an AU Microsoft login page where you can enter your Asbury username and password. If you are already signed into another Asbury service (email, Portal, Discovery), you may be automatically signed in after entering "asburyu" in the domain field.

So while it is possible, we recommend always signing straight into asburyu.zoom.us.
