How to sign into Zoom


There are two recommended options


  • OPTION 1 - Navigate to https://utexas.zoom.us/profile to log into your Zoom account using your UTEID and password. 

  • OPTION 2 - You can access Zoom through your Canvas page for your class.  Just log into your Canvas course and select the Zoom link in the left menu bar

    NOTE: If you have had an existing public Zoom account that you don't need, please delete it using these instructions to avoid mixing up your two accounts. 

In some cases, if you find yourself with a different login screen that offers an option on the right for "Sign in with SSO", please use the instructions posted here on the Common FAQ page.
