Using Zoom Events in-app check-in scanning
When hosts set up hybrid events, both remote and on-site attendees can participate in the event. Additionally, Zoom offers a QR code scanner in the Zoom Events Companion app. Hosts and special roles (with permission) can scan QR codes included in attendees' e-badges or registration emails to check them into their events or sessions.
