When scheduling a Zoom session in StreamAlive, you’ll be prompted to enter your meeting link or panelist link depending on whether it’s a meeting or webinar.
This link is essential for StreamAlive’s bot to connect to the correct session and enable its powerful interaction features.
If you’re unsure where to find your Zoom link or what it looks like, don’t worry—this guide is here to help.
Let’s get started and find that link so you can deliver an engaging and interactive session!
