Login Information

  • Perigean will send you the login instructions for using Zoom accounts for user research. The first time you use their account you will need to coordinate with Perigean on 2FA.

Presenter Role:

After logging in, you will be logged in as a presenter (be sure to enter your name). As a presenter, you are able to:

  • Share your full screen or window

  • Give mouse control to participants

  • Mute all observers on the call

  • Record any meetings/and or feedback sessions

Things to know during a feedback session:

  • Be sure you have silenced the sounds (be-boops) as observers enter or exit the session

  • You can set meeting preferences by clicking the gear icon. Under General settings, select View advanced features. Make sure that Play sound when participants join or leave is not selected.

  • If you want to record the participant's screenreader audio, the "Share computer sound" checkbox must be selected when they share their screen.

How to obtain Zoom recordings

  • After receiving the participant’s permission to record, start recording.

    • Press “record” button in Zoom.

    • Select “record to cloud” so that the recordings “save” to Perigean’s account. This allows all researchers on the team to access recordings.

  • Perigean will send links for each recording.

  • You may download recordings, but keep them only as long as necessary to complete synthesis, then securely dispose of them.

  • Never upload any recordings to the cloud (Github, Dropbox, Google Docs, etc.) or any other public or private server.

If you encounter issues not covered here, access@zoom.com is responsive and helpful.
