being able to pre-assign breakout rooms whilst setting up a zoom meeting using the Canvas LTI would be great!

This currently is not a feature either in the legacy LTI app or in their new Zoom LTI Pro app.  It would be nice if the people at Zoom were able to add it as a configurable toggle switch when someone signs in to their Zoom admin account on Zoom.us.  There are a bunch of options that can be configured on Zoom's website for the LTI once it is integrated into Canvas, and having a toggle switch to create breakout rooms upon initial meeting creation would be handy.  This would be available for all courses.  I imagine that you'd have to make this kind of request with Zoom and not Instructure, though.

Definitely would love to have Breakout Rooms pre-assign available in the Canvas LTI Pro. Currently the work around is scheduling with pre-assigned rooms in Zoom web portal and posting the invite/join link inside a Canvas course page/announcement and then moving the recording from the personal folder to the course folder in Panopto.

This feature would make the LTI immensely valuable for educators.
