Overview

This page describes the steps to be taken in order to stream a Zoom Meeting or Webinar via YouTube, with a UTokyo Zoom account. In addition, with an ECCS Cloud Email (xxx@g.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp) account, you can restrict YouTube content (including live streams) to UTokyo members only.

• On a YouTube channel linked to a Brand Account, it is impossible to restrict YouTube content to UTokyo members only. Therefore the instructions below only apply to a channel linked to an ECCS Cloud Email account.
