Hello!
All of you need - a conference ID and probably password. Now you can 
participate in conference by pressing Join button in zoom client and 
providing this ID and/or password. Conference ID is part of your url 
after '/j/' - for example conference url is 
https://zoom.us/j/111222333?pwd=ejhxhshyocdyaszT9 and conference ID is 
111222333. BTW, you can join conference via web-client from browser by 
url https://zoom.us/wc/join/YOUR-CONFERENCE-ID, but with firefox prior 
version 77 (nightly) without audio and with chromium without webcam 
(FreeBSD only, also audio and screen sharing works).
