Zoom meeting requests managed through email or informal messages give meeting organizers and IT coordinators an inconsistent record of what is needed, when, who is attending, and whether any technical or accessibility requirements need to be addressed. Agendas are not documented at the point of scheduling. Recording preferences are unstated. Accessibility accommodations are raised as afterthoughts. Without a structured intake process, coordinating the meeting setup and ensuring all participants receive the correct details requires more back-and-forth than it should.
The Schedule Zoom Meeting template for SharePoint, built with Infowise Ultimate Forms, provides a structured meeting request form that captures the meeting title, description, schedule, timezone, frequency, host, participants, agenda, recording preference, technical requirements, accessibility needs, and distribution instructions for the Zoom link. Every request is stored as a complete, actionable record in SharePoint.
How it works
Meeting details and schedule
The form captures the meeting title and a brief description of the meeting's purpose or agenda alongside the start and end date and time, timezone, and meeting frequency. Capturing timezone explicitly ensures that scheduling is unambiguous for distributed teams and that automated calendar invitations or notifications reference the correct time for all participants, regardless of their location.
Host, participants, and agenda
The form captures the meeting host and a participant list including names and email addresses, providing the coordinator with everything needed to send the Zoom link and calendar invitation without additional follow-up. A dedicated agenda field captures an outline of the topics and agenda items for the meeting, ensuring that the record contains not just the logistical details but the substantive purpose of the meeting from the moment of scheduling.
Recording and setup preferences
A required recording preference field captures whether the meeting should be recorded, enabling the coordinator to configure the Zoom session correctly before the meeting begins. A free-form setup preferences field gives the requester the space to communicate any specific instructions or preferences for how the meeting should be configured that are not covered by the structured fields.
Technical requirements and accessibility
A technical requirements field captures any specific technology or configuration needs for the session. A dedicated accessibility accommodations field captures whether any participants require accommodations, ensuring these are identified and addressed at the scheduling stage rather than raised as a last-minute issue before the meeting begins.
Contact and link distribution
A contact email field captures who should be reached for any questions or issues related to the meeting. A dedicated field captures where the Zoom meeting link should be sent or posted, ensuring the coordinator knows exactly how to distribute access to the session. A final field captures any other special requests or considerations relevant to the meeting setup.
