Zoom: Schedule Meetings and Access Recordings

List meetings, schedule calls, access cloud recordings, and manage your Zoom calendar. OAuth credentials are injected automatically.

Overview

OneCLI connects AI agents to Zoom through Zoom’s OAuth flow. Agents can list and manage meetings, access cloud recordings, and view user profile information. The gateway injects OAuth credentials into requests to the Zoom API automatically.

This is useful for scheduling agents, meeting summarizers, or any agent that needs to interact with your Zoom account.

Adding the App

1. Go to Connections

   Open the OneCLI dashboard and navigate to Connections > Zoom.

   

   Zoom connection page with permissions

2. Authorize

   Click Connect Zoom. You’ll be redirected to Zoom to authorize OneCLI. Review the requested permissions and click Allow.

   

   The Zoom connect window on OneCLI Cloud.

   OneCLI requests read access to your meetings, recordings, and profile by default. Write access (create, update, delete meetings) is optional and only requested if your agent needs meeting management capabilities.

3. Verify

   After authorization, you’ll be redirected back to the OneCLI dashboard. The Zoom connection will show as Connected with your Zoom email address.

Self-hosted: use your own Zoom app

Skip this section on OneCLI Cloud. It’s only for self-hosted OneCLI without ZOOM_CLIENT_ID and ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET set, or if you want your own company name on Zoom’s consent screen.

1. Create the Zoom app

In the Zoom App Marketplace, open Develop > Build App, choose General App, and select Create. Under Select how the app is managed, choose User-managed.

Choose User-managed. Your Client ID and Client Secret are under App Credentials.

2. Add the redirect URL

In OneCLI, open Connections > Zoom > Custom credentials and copy the Redirect URI. In Zoom, open Basic Information > OAuth Information, paste it into OAuth Redirect URL, and add it to the OAuth Allow List too.

Copy the Redirect URI from Custom credentials in OneCLI.

The OneCLI Redirect URI in both OAuth Redirect URL and OAuth Allow Lists.

3. Add the scopes

Open Scopes > Add Scopes and add:

user:read:user, meeting:read:list_meetings, meeting:read:meeting, meeting:write:meeting, meeting:update:meeting, meeting:delete:meeting, cloud_recording:read:list_user_recordings, cloud_recording:read:list_recording_files

4. Connect with your app

On Basic Information, copy the Client ID and Client Secret. Paste both into Connections > Zoom > Custom credentials, select Save & Connect, and click Allow in Zoom.

Prerequisites and troubleshooting

Prerequisites

• A Zoom account (Free, Pro, or Business)
• An OneCLI account at app.onecli.sh

Troubleshooting

• Authorization fails: Ensure pop-ups are not blocked by your browser during the OAuth redirect.
• Missing scopes: If your agent can’t perform certain actions, disconnect and reconnect Zoom to request the optional write scopes.
• Token expired: OneCLI automatically refreshes expired tokens. If you encounter persistent auth errors, disconnect and reconnect.

Usage

What agents can do

Meetings (read)

• List scheduled and past meetings for your account
• Get details for a specific meeting (topic, start time, duration, join URL, participants)

Meetings (write, optional)

• Schedule new meetings with topic, time, duration, and settings
• Update existing meetings (reschedule, change topic, modify settings)
• Delete meetings

Cloud Recordings

• List all cloud recordings for your account
• Access recording files for a specific meeting (video, audio, transcript)

User Profile

• View your Zoom profile (name, email, account type)

Example use cases

• Meeting prep agent: Pulls your upcoming meetings and prepares agendas or briefing docs
• Recording summarizer: Accesses cloud recordings and generates meeting summaries
• Scheduling assistant: Creates Zoom meetings based on calendar availability
• Meeting cleanup: Identifies and removes outdated or cancelled meetings

Activity log

All Zoom API requests made by agents are logged in the Activity tab. You can see the method, endpoint, status, and latency for every request.

Controlling access

Access is per agent: grant the connection to each agent that needs it, choosing per tool what runs freely, what needs human approval, and what stays blocked — a read-only agent is a single grant. Organization rules add guardrails on top, like rate limits and blanket blocks. Everything is checked before credential injection, so a blocked request never reaches the Zoom API.

Removing the App

Removing the app

1. Disconnect from OneCLI

   Open the OneCLI dashboard, navigate to Connections > Zoom, and click Disconnect. This revokes the stored OAuth token and removes the connection from your OneCLI account.

2. Revoke from Zoom (optional)

   To fully revoke access, go to the Zoom App Marketplace > Manage > Installed Apps, find OneCLI, and click Uninstall. This ensures OneCLI can no longer access your Zoom account even if you reconnect later without re-authorizing.

What happens when you disconnect

• OneCLI immediately deletes your stored OAuth tokens (access and refresh tokens)
• Any agents using the Zoom connection will receive authorization errors
• No Zoom data is retained by OneCLI after disconnection
• Your Zoom meetings, recordings, and account are not affected

FAQ

What Zoom data does OneCLI store?

OneCLI only stores your OAuth tokens (encrypted with AES-256) and basic profile metadata (name and email) used to display the connection status. No meeting content, recording data, or personal information is stored.

Do I need a paid Zoom account?

No. The integration works with Free, Pro, and Business Zoom accounts. Some features like cloud recordings may require a Zoom plan that supports them.

Can I limit what agents are allowed to do?

Yes. Grant the Zoom connection per agent with per-tool access — for example, allow reading meetings while blocking create and delete. Organization rules can add guardrails on top.

What happens if my Zoom token expires?

OneCLI automatically refreshes expired tokens using the stored refresh token. No action is needed on your part. If a refresh fails, disconnect and reconnect Zoom from the dashboard.

Will disconnecting OneCLI affect my Zoom account?

No. Disconnecting only removes the OAuth tokens stored in OneCLI. Your Zoom meetings, recordings, and account settings are not modified or deleted.
