Configure OAuth Authentication

You must configure OAuth authentication so that the connector can authenticate with Zoom.

To configure OAuth authentication

  1. Open the folder where you installed the connector.
  2. Open the file oauth_tool.cfg in a text editor.
  3. In the [Default] section, specify any SSL or proxy settings necessary to connect to Zoom:

    SSLMethod The version of SSL/TLS to use.
    ProxyHost The host name or IP address of the proxy server to use.
    ProxyPort The port of the proxy server to use.

    For example:

    SSLMethod=NEGOTIATE
    ProxyHost=10.0.0.1
    ProxyPort=8080
  4. In the [OAuthTool] section, set the following parameters:

    AppKey The application key (client ID) that was provided by Zoom when you set up an application to represent the connector.
    AppSecret The application secret (client secret) that was provided by Zoom when you set up an application to represent the connector.

    Do not modify the other parameters in this section.

  5. Open a command-line window and run the following command:

    oauth_tool.exe oauth_tool.cfg OAuthTool

    A web browser opens and you are asked to log in and grant consent.

  6. Log in and grant consent.

    The web page displays a message stating that the OAuth details have been successfully stored, and the OAuth tool creates the file oauth.cfg. When you configure the connector, import the parameters from oauth.cfg into your task configuration. For more information about including parameters from another file, see Include an External Configuration File.

    You can now configure a task to retrieve data from Zoom. See Retrieve Information from Zoom.
