import { Tabs, Callout, Steps } from "nextra/components"; # Zoom At this time, Arcade does not offer a default Zoom Auth Provider. To use Zoom auth, you must create a custom Auth Provider with your own Zoom OAuth 2.0 credentials as described below. The Zoom auth provider enables tools and agents to call the Zoom API on behalf of a user. ### What's documented here This page describes how to use and configure Zoom auth with Arcade. This auth provider is used by: - Your [app code](#using-zoom-auth-in-app-code) that needs to call Zoom APIs - Or, your [custom tools](#using-zoom-auth-in-custom-tools) that need to call Zoom APIs ## Configuring Zoom auth When using your own app credentials, make sure you configure your project to use a [custom user verifier](/guides/user-facing-agents/secure-auth-production#build-a-custom-user-verifier). Without this, your end-users will not be able to use your app or agent in production. In a production environment, you will most likely want to use your own Zoom app credentials. This way, your users will see your application's name requesting permission. Before showing how to configure your Zoom app credentials, let's go through the steps to create a Zoom app. ### Create a Zoom app - Follow Zoom's guide to [registering an app](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/integrations/create/) on the Zoom marketplace - Set the redirect URL to the redirect URL generated by Arcade (see below) and enable Strict Mode - Enable the Zoom features and permissions (scopes) that your app needs - Copy the client ID and client secret to use below Next, add the Zoom app to Arcade. ## Configuring your own Zoom Auth Provider in Arcade ### Configure Zoom Auth Using the Arcade Dashboard GUI #### Access the Arcade Dashboard To access the Arcade Cloud dashboard, go to [api.arcade.dev/dashboard](https://api.arcade.dev/dashboard). If you are self-hosting, by default the dashboard will be available at http://localhost:9099/dashboard. Adjust the host and port number to match your environment. #### Navigate to the OAuth Providers page - Under the **Connections** section of the Arcade Dashboard left-side menu, click **Connected Apps**. - Click **Add OAuth Provider** in the top right corner. - Select the **Included Providers** tab at the top. - In the **Provider** dropdown, select **Zoom**. #### Enter the provider details - Choose a unique **ID** for your provider (e.g. "my-zoom-provider"). - Optionally enter a **Description**. - Enter the **Client ID** and **Client Secret** from your Zoom app. - Note the **Redirect URL** generated by Arcade. This must be set as your Zoom app's redirect URL. #### Create the provider Hit the **Create** button and the provider will be ready to be used. When you use tools that require Zoom auth using your Arcade account credentials, Arcade will automatically use this Zoom OAuth provider. If you have multiple Zoom providers, see [using multiple auth providers of the same type](/references/auth-providers#using-multiple-providers-of-the-same-type) for more information. ## Using Zoom auth in app code Use the Zoom auth provider in your own agents and AI apps to get a user token for the Zoom API. See [authorizing agents with Arcade](/get-started/about-arcade) to understand how this works. Use `client.auth.start()` to get a user token for the Zoom API: ```python {8-12} from arcadepy import Arcade client = Arcade() # Automatically finds the `ARCADE_API_KEY` env variable user_id = "{arcade_user_id}" # Start the authorization process auth_response = client.auth.start( user_id=user_id, provider="zoom", scopes=["meeting:read:list_upcoming_meetings"], ) if auth_response.status != "completed": print("Please complete the authorization challenge in your browser:") print(auth_response.url) # Wait for the authorization to complete auth_response = client.auth.wait_for_completion(auth_response) token = auth_response.context.token # Do something interesting with the token... ``` ```javascript {8-10} import { Arcade } from "@arcadeai/arcadejs"; const client = new Arcade(); // Automatically finds the `ARCADE_API_KEY` env variable const userId = "{arcade_user_id}"; // Start the authorization process let authResponse = await client.auth.start(userId, "zoom", [ "meeting:read:list_upcoming_meetings", ]); if (authResponse.status !== "completed") { console.log("Please complete the authorization challenge in your browser:"); console.log(authResponse.url); } // Wait for the authorization to complete authResponse = await client.auth.waitForCompletion(authResponse); const token = authResponse.context.token; // Do something interesting with the token... ``` ## Using Zoom auth in custom tools You can author your own [custom tools](/guides/create-tools/tool-basics/build-mcp-server) that interact with the Zoom API. Use the `Zoom()` auth class to specify that a tool requires authorization with Zoom. The `context.authorization.token` field will be automatically populated with the user's Zoom token: ```python {5-6,9-13,23} from typing import Annotated, Optional import httpx from arcade_tdk import ToolContext, tool from arcade_tdk.auth import Zoom @tool( requires_auth=Zoom( scopes=["meeting:read:list_upcoming_meetings"], ) ) async def list_upcoming_meetings( context: ToolContext, user_id: Annotated[ Optional[str], "The user's user ID or email address. Defaults to 'me' for the current user.", ] = "me", ) -> Annotated[dict, "List of upcoming meetings within the next 24 hours"]: """List a Zoom user's upcoming meetings within the next 24 hours.""" url = f"https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/{user_id}/upcoming_meetings" headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {context.authorization.token}"} async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client: response = await client.get(url, headers=headers) response.raise_for_status() return response.json() ```
