Hey @That-Tech-Guy,

Correct, however to start a webinar you cannot use the Zoom Web Client. You must use the Zoom Desktop / Mobile Client.

Using the web client direct url it will not redirect. Here is an example of a url for joining webinars with the Zoom Web Client:

> Hey @gabriele.limonta, Thanks for your patience! For this to work you need to have Webinar Registration Required turned off, and then use the uel={base64EncodedEmail} query param. For example: https://zoom.us/wc/123456789/join?prefer=1&un=bmFtZQ==&uel=ZW1haWxAZG9tYWluLmNvbQ== Thanks, Tommy

Thanks,
