Enabling or disabling Zoom Webinars with the Zoom Workplace license
Account owners and admins can limit access to the Zoom Webinars license to users in their account when the Zoom Workplace bundle is assigned. This setting is enabled by default.
When admins enable access to the Zoom Webinars license within the Zoom Workplace bundle, users with a Zoom Workplace license automatically have access to Zoom Webinars.
When an admin disables access to Zoom Webinars within the Zoom Workplace bundle, users with the Zoom Workplace license cannot use Zoom Webinars. Individual Zoom Webinars licenses assigned to users are not changed with this setting.
