    Hello, I have the plugin nicely integrated with Moodle and everything works fine except that the View Recordings option always shows an empty list although I have a Zoom Business account and I can see the Cloud recordings on the Zoom page. Anyone knows what can be the reason?

    Thank you very much!

    I have a problem with Zoom: Zoom recibió una solicitud incorrecta: Only available for Paid account.

    Jorge Martín: The recordings are loaded as part of a scheduled task. You may be able to run the task manually to check for error messages.

    Carlos Arjona Quijano: This is a known issue that we believe is related to #228 and/or #251 on our GitHub issues list. The task has been assigned and we have a solution in mind but we have not had the time to complete it yet.

    Hi, everyone! I just update my Zoom plugin to v4.5.0, but I notice that the little camera blue icon is gone! I can't see it neither in courses nor in activities when I add a new one. Is there a way to fix it? Last version worked fine for me.

    Thank you in advance.

    I'm using Moodle 3.9 with Klass Theme.

    Hi Aula Virtual TEG,

    Hello Jonathan Champ, Hello Steve Bader,
    We really like your Plugin. It eases our work on our moodle-site!
    We wonder if it's possible to apply the username from moodle as display name in zoom as well – our participants would appreciate that very much!

    Thank you for yor help!

    Hi F Steenken,

    The join URL for the participants already send the user's full name from Moodle: https://github.com/ncstate-delta/moodle-mod_zoom/blob/e294f94fa7a0e19b40f70af8b59f4435acc6a505/locallib.php#L1050

    However, please note that if the user is logged in to a Zoom account, it will use that Zoom account's name instead. We do not have any control over the name of logged-in users.

    Hi Jonathan Champ,
    thanks for the hint! So what we asked for already works by default or else can't be done.

    That's good to know, thanks a lot!

    Hi Jonathan Champ,
    one follow-up question: do you have control over the display name of users that are not logged-in in zoom, but are using the zoom app? My guess is in that case the username that was sent along with the join URL will still be overwritten/dismissed just as if the user was logged-in. Is that right?

    Many thanks again!
