Customizing your profile

Your Zoom profile allows you to update your user information, including your name, personal meeting ID, email address, and more. Some of this information is displayed to other users in the account, such as your name, department, and job title. This information can be viewed by other contacts during a meeting or in Team Chat when they view your profile card.

Note: Some settings can only be changed by an account owner or admin.

How to access your profile
