Resolution/Answer

Five minutes after ending your Zoom class meeting, you can generate reports of student attendance and poll results. The Meeting Report lists the name, email address, join/leave times, and duration in minutes for each student who attended the meeting. The poll report for a meeting lists the name and email address of each student who answered the poll question(s), along with the question text and the answer given by the student. Meeting and poll reports are deleted 30 days after the meeting.
