How to Obtain APIs

To obtain API credentials, visit the Zoom App Marketplace at https://marketplace.zoom.us/ and sign in with your Zoom account. If you don't have a Zoom account, you can create one using this link.

eRoom requires Server-to-Server OAuth and Meeting SDK APIs to connect with Zoom and use its functionalities.

To make the Zoom Credentials work, the SSL should be activated on your domain.

Server-to-Server App Credentials

On the Zoom App Marketplace page, click Develop and select Build App from the dropdown menu.

In the popup window, choose Server-to-Server OAuth App and click on the Create button:

Give a name to your App and click on Create:

After completing this step, the system will automatically create API credentials, available in the App Credentials section.

After selecting Continue, you will be taken to the Information page. On this page, you are required to enter essential details for your app, including your email and a description. Please ensure you accurately complete the following fields in the Information section:

Company Name
