Joining Your Company’s Team Account

Part I: Install the Warmly add-on to your Zoom client

Warmly saves you time so you can focus on what matters most: building better relationships. Our convenient Zoom-add on makes it easy to look professional and create connections where you meet co-workers & clients everyday. To add Warmly to your Zoom client:

  1. Head over to Warmly’s Zoom app marketplace listing.

  2. Click Sign in to Add (use your corporate Zoom account, e.g. [email protected]).

  3. After signing into your corporate Zoom account, click Visit Site to Add.

    1. Be sure to click Allow to add Warmly to Zoom.

b. After, you’ll be redirected to your Zoom client to complete the add-on.

❓Why was I not redirected to Zoom? You must be logged into your corporate Zoom account (e.g. [email protected]) on both the webpage you visited and the Zoom client to successfully add Warmly. To fix this, open your Zoom client, log in & click the Apps icon to view the App (Apps can be accessed outside of any meeting from the client):

4. Once redirected (or if you clicked AI Business Cards by Warmly in the previous step), click Start Meeting to open Warmly.

*Note: this is a self-meeting, where only you will be in the meeting.

Part II: Sign on to create an account with Warmly

After adding Warmly to your Zoom client, you’ll need to create an account with Warmly to use the App. There are two ways to sign up/on to Warmly:

In this section, we’ll show you how to sign on safely with your Google/Microsoft email.

  1. Start your account creation by clicking Sign in with Google/Microsoft

*Note: you’ll notice the “Apps” icon between the “Reactions” & “End” meeting buttons on your taskbar. To open or close Warmly in meetings, toggle the Apps button.

2. Enter your corporate Zoom email address (e.g. [email protected]).

3. Confirm this email once more; do so by logging in with your corporate Zoom account via your typical Zoom login method.

4. Click Connect your Calendar and Allow Warmly to view calendar events.

❓Why is Warmly asking to connect to my calendar? Your company has already approved this functionality, but by connecting your calendar, Warmly will show unique information on everyone you'll meet. Learn more about others with personal bios, mutual connections on LinkedIn, news about their company & more. It’ll also allow you to bring in dynamic logos and shoutouts that are contextual to the person you’re meeting with.

5. Once redirected back to Zoom, your Warmly account will be successfully created, dropping you back into the self-meeting to begin building your Nametag.

Sign on using Single Sign-On (SSO)

If your Admin has already approved SSO and requires you to use it, then please follow the directions below to sign up/in to Warmly. Otherwise, please use your work-associated Google or Microsoft account to sign up.

    *Note: you’ll notice the “Apps” icon between the “Reactions” & “End” meeting buttons on your taskbar. To open or close Warmly in meetings, toggle the Apps button.

2. Enter your corporate Zoom email address (e.g. [email protected]). You will be redirected to your SSO portal to sign in with your corporate email.

3. Confirm this email once more; do so by logging in with your corporate Zoom account via your typical Zoom login method.

4. Click Connect your Calendar and Allow Warmly to view calendar events.

❓Why is Warmly asking to connect to my calendar? Your company has already approved this functionality, but by connecting your calendar, Warmly will show unique information on everyone you'll meet.

It’ll also allow you to bring in dynamic logos and shoutouts that are contextual to the person you’re meeting with.

5. Once redirected back to Zoom, your Warmly account will be successfully created, dropping you back into the self-meeting to begin building your Nametag.

Building and managing your Warmly Nametag

Edit your profile information on the You tab

The “You” tab is one of three tabs, located on the bottom of the Warmly taskbar as the furthest right button. In this section, we’ll show you how to add a personal touch to your Nametag. As you configure to your needs, Warmly will craft your Nametag in real time:

  1. In the self-meeting, turn on your camera by clicking Start Video.

*Note: Warmly will auto-populate a hyper-basic Nametag for convenience.

❓Why is my Nametag not showing? If you’ve never set a background in Zoom before, you might be missing the "Smart Virtual Background package". To fix this, click the ^ on the Start Video button and set a native background from the settings to start the install:

2. Click the Nametag Builder tab to add & edit profile information that appears on your Nametag.

a. Here, you can share location, pronouns, name pronunciation, LinkedIn & more to help others get to know you better.

💡 Pro tip: make sure to add a short Bio in your profile. Tidbits about yourself reduces time on intros with others and can help to build better rapport beyond the basics. Here’s an example format that you can use: “Amateur surfer, Chipotle enthusiast, Evening woodworker.”

3. Any information on your Nametag can be shown or hidden as desired by clicking the toggle in the respective profile field.

Install and Nametag completion

Having now learned a few ways to configure your profile information, you have successfully installed the app and set a hyper-basic Nametag with Warmly. Interested to learn more? Continue on to an in-depth Part II enablement guide here.
