Saving your Zoom chat

What’s this for?

The chat text in a Zoom meeting can be saved for future reference.

By default ICS has the ability to save the chat history enabled but turned off and can be be managed by the host at their discretion.

You can turn it on as you go per Zoom meeting or you can have it always save. Below are the 2 methods.

PLEASE NOTE: Both these methods require you to use the web site version of Zoom and not your app.

Do not open the app and follow any of this inside the app. It won’t work.

Open

Go to icsnsw.zoom.us instead and click on:
