How To: Update Your Zoom Emergency Address

In the event of an emergency, Zoom would like to be able to direct emergency services personnel to your exact location whether you are working on campus or not. For this reason, they will need your correct on-campus location and, if you work from home occasionally, your home address/work location. Zoom will detect which location you are at when you dial emergency services and send personnel to the correct location.

There are several ways that Zoom may ask for your Emergency Address location. If it never asks, it would be a good idea to check the settings anyway. If you receive an email regarding this, you can feel free to ignore the instructions listed there, but be sure to update or confirm the address online following the steps below.

From the Zoom Client Notification

  1. If you see the Zoom Emergency Address Confirmation Notification, you can click on the icon and either confirm or change the address from there: screenshot showing the zoom emergency address confirmation notification and pop up noticeChoose “Confirm if it is correct”.
