Using the Zoom Web Portal

While some changes to meetings and your settings can be done in the Zoom application on your computer or through the Zoom app in Canvas, there are times when you will need to access the Zoom web portal in order to enable and adjust the settings you need.

Access the Zoom web portal

Go to https://nelboston.zoom.us/ in your web browser.
Click "Sign in" to access your Zoom account settings.
Login with your nesl.edu email address and password when prompted.
- If you're already logged in to your nesl.edu email account or to Canvas in your browser, then you may not be prompted to login again.

Navigating the Zoom web portal

A breakdown of the different options within the Zoom web portal that reflects any recent updates can be found in the Zoom guide Getting started with the Zoom Web Portal.

Some important options within the web portal are:

Profile
- On the Profile page, you can Edit what information is displayed to others during meetings, including pronouns and name pronunciation.
Meetings
- The Meetings page has different tabs for upcoming and past meetings.
- Some meeting options, especially the option to Edit all meetings in a recurring series, can only be adjusted in the Zoom web portal.
Recordings & Transcripts
- This page provides tabs for locating meetings recorded to the cloud or locally to your computer.
Settings
- Please see the Zoom guide Changing user-level settings for a full breakdown of all the tabs of settings available in the Zoom web portal. Note: Some settings may not be available in your NEL Zoom account.
- If you'd like to use features such as breakout rooms or polls in meetings that you host, you'll need to enable those in your user settings first.
