Introduction
What is OBTP Join?
Put simply, OBTP (One Button to Push) means that attendees will be presented with a big green "Join" button on the Video Conference control panel to commence participation in the scheduled conference, bypassing the need to enter a Meeting ID or Password.
The OBTP Zoom Join integration requires an O365 resource for the integration to work.
The OBTP Join feature is in the process of being rolled out to more rooms.
|
Rooms which currently support OBTP Join are listed in the AV Inventory. Search for the Room Feature: "Join Button for Zoom Meeting (OBTP)" |
If a Deakin video conference room is bookable in O365, and the room has the OBTP feature enabled (refer to AV Inventory), by scheduling your meeting as a Zoom Meeting and inviting the room to the meeting, the OBTP Join button will appear on the Touch Panel of the room at the time of the meeting.
What is a Zoom Join Connector?
O365 Resources known as 'Zoom Join Connectors' "V STAFF Zoom Join <room name> Connector" have been created for the video conference rooms which are booked in Syllabus Plus, and where the Zoom meeting is created using the Zoom Brightspace LTI.
The Zoom Join Connector O365 resource simply acts as a virtual cable, allowing a path for the OBTP Join button to appear in that room.

It is important to note that:

Room Bookings
Deakin has two main Room Booking Services, Office 365 (O365) and Syllabus Plus.
Video Conference Rooms that are booked as a Zoom meeting in O365 will have the OBTP Join appear.
Video Conference Rooms that are booked in Syllabus Plus will need to invite the relevant Zoom Join Connector for that room if you want the OBTB Join button to be displayed for those Zoom meetings.
Instructions
How to add the OBTP Join Button
