Assigned breakout rooms will only work for users using the desktop client or mobile app - otherwise if they are logged into the Zoom web client (or using a Chromebook/Chrome OS) - they will just be put into the default main room. |
Once you have pre-assigned the breakout rooms in Zoom, students must click in their Zoom toolbar "Breakout Room", and then click "join breakout room"
