Zoom Docs is a collaborative workspace built into Zoom where you can create and edit documents, wikis, tables, and more—both during and outside of meetings. This article explains how to access Zoom Docs, navigate the main tabs, add and organize pages, use templates to get started quickly, and share docs with others so you can collaborate in real time.

Start with a Doc Template
On the Docs home page, select the “Templates” button. You can choose from several templates depending on what kind of doc you want to build: a project tracker, a brief, a meeting agenda, and more.
Sharing a Doc
You can share a doc to allow others to view and collaborate with the appropriate permissions. Click Share in the top-right corner and enter the name of the Zoom user you would like to share with. From the Share menu, you can also change who can access the doc and copy a link to share outside of Zoom. Learn more about Zoom Docs sharing permission types.
