# Invalid Parameter Error Joining by Webinar Embed

 * We are trying to embed a webinar on our site using the shortcode:
 * [zoom_join_via_browser meeting_id=”xxxXXXXxxxx” login_required=”no” help=”no”
   height=”700px” disable_countdown=”Yes” passcode=”yyyyyy” webinar=”yes”]
 * We did this successfully in January 2021, but when I set it up again for an upcoming
   event I get this error when I try to join:
 * “Joining meeting timeout.
    Invalid parameter”
 * I am attempting to join from Mac OS 11.4 using both Chrome and Safari and I get
   the same error.
 * I can join the webinar using the invite link, both in my browser and in the zoom
   app.
 * I have seen from the support threads that there have been issues like this before.
   Anyone have any insights into solving this particular instance?
 * Or is the webinar embed just not working and I need to provide attendees with
   the direct link to open in the app or non-embedded browser?

 * Hi there,
 * Is email parameter enabled in join via browser window screen for you ?

 * Thank you for the quick reply!
 * Yes, there is both a name and an email field for the log-in.
 * I decided to test the previous webinar (the one that we’d successfully used the
   embed code with in January 2021) and that one gets me to a different stage where
   it’s asking me to enter the tk from the login url, though my login url has a 
   pwd string appended to it and not a tk string.
 * So, that’s a different issue, with the same result being that I can’t successfully
   access the webinar via the view in browser embed.

 * Well, it seems to have started working now.
 * So hopefully it works on the day of our event!
