Setting Area Code for Zoom Phones

Introduction

By setting an area code for your Zoom Phone, you can call local numbers without having to enter in the area code first. Employees using St. Cloud State University-hosted Zoom services should set the area code to "320" for the account associated with their work phone number. 

*Please note that St. Cloud State University is currently in the process of transitioning all employees from the current phone system to the Zoom phone service between December 2022 and June 2023. This article applies only to those who have been moved to the Zoom phone service. Learn more about this project on the Zoom webpage.

3. On the top navigation bar, select "Settings".
