You should know a few things if you use the Zoom LTI Pro integration with your LMS and EchoVideo. Some of these items are addressed in the help procedure articles, but some are side items you may run into. If you encounter problems and need assistance, contact your EchoVideo support representative or email support.
Check Opt-In Status and Alternate Email
For full Zoom / LMS / EchoVideo integration, EchoVideo Instructors must opt into the Automatic copy of Zoom recordings to EchoVideo (the toggle is turned on). This ensures that EchoVideo can ingest your Zoom recordings. Minimally, it ensures that your recordings appear in your EchoVideo library.
In addition, your Zoom login email must match your LMS / EchoVideo email, or you must configure an Alternate email for your Zoom account. This ensures that EchoVideo can identify which are your recordings, pull them from the Zoom cloud and write them to your library and the linked sections.
Check Your Zoom Account Recording Settings
Zoom offers a wide variety of options and settings you can control for your Zoom account and the meeting recordings you generate. We have documented our recommendations for these so that you can record what you want from each meeting and ensure your meetings are written to the Zoom cloud. EchoVideo can only ingest Zoom meeting recordings that are written to the cloud.
See Zoom Integration for Instructors.
Use Different Meeting IDs for Different Courses
The association of each Zoom Meeting ID with a different LMS Course and then a different EchoVideo section generally relies on the Meeting IDs for each course's class meetings being unique. You can easily have multiple Zoom meeting IDs for a single LMS course that write to a single EchoVideo section. However, using the same Zoom meeting ID across multiple LMS courses and into multiple EchoVideo sections has been shown to cause some issues.
We recommend against using the Zoom LTI Pro scheduling interface's Import Meeting or Disassociate Meeting features. The main issue is that the association / disassociation of Zoom meetings to LMS courses does not propagate to EchoVideo in this way. So EchoVideo never actually knows that a Zoom Meeting ID should no longer be attached to an EchoVideo section and, therefore, keeps writing those recordings into the previously associated section.
Don't Use Your Personal Meeting ID for Course Meetings
Similar to the previous section regarding unique Meeting IDs, using your Personal Meeting ID for the LMS-EchoVideo associated Zoom meetings is not recommended. Essentially once that meeting ID is associated with an EchoVideo section through the LMS course, it's difficult to unlink it.
Because your institution is already integrated with EchoVideo, you can use your Personal Meeting ID for meetings. Do not schedule those meetings through the LMS Course interface with Zoom. Do those directly in Zoom. Those recordings will end up in your Library. From there, you can publish them anywhere you need to.
Besides that, the resulting classes in EchoVideo will always have the title Personal Meeting Room, even if you give the meeting a different name.
Be Sure to Click Through to your EchoVideo Section
Even if your administrator does all the connecting bits for you, even if you have never had to select an EchoVideo section to link your LMS, even if the EchoVideo section is automatically created when you link through, click your way into your EchoVideo section first. Land on the section home page (also called the Class List, though in some cases there may not be classes there yet).
More than just associating the LMS Course to an EchoVideo section is required. The Zoom LTI Pro integration requires an actual pass-through to ensure that EchoVideo knows which recordings to auto-publish to which sections.
This step is clearly defined in the EchoVideo documentation for completing the integration.
Zoom Settings Mapping in EchoVideo does not Map LTI Pro-mapped Zoom Meetings
If you go to your Account Settings page in EchoVideo (click the Settings icon in the top-right corner, then select Account Settings), then select Zoom from the left, you will see the Opt-In / Out toggle referred to at the top of this page, and a button for configuring an Alternate Email for your Zoom account login.
Below all that, you will see a table that lists all of your Zoom meeting IDs, their name, and a drop-down list that lets you map each ID to an EchoVideo section or your Library. This table lets you tell Zoom where you want those meeting recordings to go when they are complete.
If your institution uses the LTI Pro integration and you have set up some Zoom meetings from within each of your LMS courses, those meetings will also appear on this list. However, you cannot use this list to map those meeting recordings. While the list will show Library Only as the target location, those meetings are mapped to the EchoVideo section you linked to through your LMS course.
If appropriate, you can use this table to map non-LTI Pro-generated meetings to different locations, including your Personal Meeting ID. This is another reason you should not use your Personal Meeting ID for LTI Pro-generated course meetings. The recordings of those meetings cannot be easily remapped to another location once they are mapped through LTI Pro in the LMS course. You are not be able to change that mapping through the Zoom Settings page if you used it through the LTI Pro interface in your LMS.
LTI Pro Zoom Meetings cannot be easily unlinked from Auto-Created EchoVideo Sections
If your institution is using LMS Simplified Provisioning and your EchoVideo Sections are automatically created when you link through from the LMS Course, as an instructor, you will not be able to unlink that EchoVideo section from the Zoom meetings you create through the LMS. An administrator would have to do that for you or at least assist.
In instances where an existing EchoVideo section is linked to from the LMS, instructors will have an Unlink LMS Course button in EchoVideo that they can use to unlink or remove the association of the LMS course from this EchoVideo section. Auto-Created courses do not provide this button, as it is assumed that the LMS Course to Section association is intended and not due to a mistaken mapping.
An administrator can unlink these for you or assist you, by turning off the simplified provisioning option and allowing you to pass into your EchoVideo section from the LMS. This will provide the Unlink LMS Course button you would need.
This is a lot of work, but it should not be necessary, as long as you generate new Zoom Meeting IDs for each of your LMS courses and ensure they are unique.
