Testing a Zoom Room setup

You can set up a Zoom Room without a license to test the Zoom Rooms functionality or join meetings. When testing or joining a meeting from an unlicensed room, you will have limited functionality. You will be able to send and receive video and audio. However, you will not be able to invite participants, record, or share content.

If you already sign in to a Zoom Rooms display, you can remotely test a Zoom Room using the web-based controller.
