Automatic Zoom meeting link generation for live lessons

What Is It & Why You Need It 

Previously, Zoom integration for live classes required manually creating a meeting from the Meeting section.

With our latest update, the system now auto-generates Zoom meeting links for you in just one click. So, you don’t need to create a meeting in the Meetings tab and then select it again during lesson creation. This feature enhancement makes setting up live classes easier and faster than before.
