TDX Generated Email Reply Confirming the Reservation of Loaner Zoom Webinar License
Hello [Requestor]
Thank you for your request. It has been approved for the requested dates. You will receive your license the day before your start date and we will take it back the day after your event.
If you need to register or share the Webinar information ahead of that time, you can schedule a meeting and take registration that way and then convert to webinar once you have that license. This article will walk you through that process: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360042761551-Converting-a-meeting-to-a-webinar

Meetings are designed to be a collaborative event where all parties can see, hear, and share with each other, whereas webinars are designed so that the host and designated panelists can share and view-only attendees can watch the presentation.
