Joining Zoom Meeting from Teams Room
Hello, I have Teams rooms set up with HP Slices in 3 of our offices, but many of our customers use Zoom as their meeting service. Is there a way to join a Zoom meeting easily from the Teams hardw...

I actually just figured out a work-around for the time being. If you use the Admin password to log into the windows settings side of the Slice machine, you're actually using a regular windows interface. You can then use a browser to log into any of these other services as usual and join meetings. In my tests, the hardware (webcam, mic, speakers) all functioned normally.
In essence, using the Slice with the regular PC interface instead of the touchscreen Teams interface

astraitman Not yet (at least, not in a directly supported way), but it's my understanding that this is a feature that is coming soon. Keep an eye on the Teams Rooms Release Notes. They just added support to join Cisco WebEx meetings, so it's likely Zoom won't be too far behind.

astraitman - I thought you'd be happy to see yesterday's release notes.
The Microsoft Team had previously said "early 2020"... I guess I'll take late 2020 🙂

I used the Zoom preview today and had a few issues. It decided to use our content camera for the webcam and I wasn't sure how to make it use the other camera. For some reason in the middle of the meeting the screen also went black for a little bit, and when it came back we were not longer able to see the slide show. Just thought I would post some feedback. This was only our first meeting using Zoom on a Teams Room device.
