Additional context
This is causing great problems trying to roll this out to my users at my company and for companies around the world who use Notes and Zoom. As an IBM Champion and HCL Ambassador, I am closely connected with the development team at HCL. I can introduce you to them if it will help. We need this fixed quickly. You should also be working with HCL in their beta software program to ensure it will work with V12 which is soon to be released.
We are in the Same boat here. Version 11 is not working. installs Zoom successfully but with no icon.
Could it be as simple as it might not be pointing to new directory since HCL Notes newer installs are in an HCL folder
We are using Zoom successfully within Notes via a pretty simple workaround
Pre Req: Setup all Zoom rooms with hardcoded rooms so they dont change
In the users Notes calendar - create an online meeting room of type ‘other’ and paste in the hardcoded URL for the Zoom meeting for that user
If you have conference units running zoom like we do then do the same for that resource
When creating a meeting select the online meeting room and the recipients will get the URL to click on and join the meeting
With the Sametime V11 client you can also put in the hardcoded meeting URL so from within chat you can jump straight to a zoom conference just by clicking the Video button in the chat session, great if you don’t roll our SameTime premium!
Tommy, that is good news! I will get a blog post ready to share it to the HCL Notes community. If you have any details you want to share with me to include in the post, (like instructions, documentation, or a link directly to the download) please share here or send me an email directly to my Zoom account email address. I have heard from many people who need this. Thanks!
Also, I hope you have updated the documentation to correctly name it so people can find it if they search for it. As of Notes V11, it is HCL Notes, not IBM Notes.
