FAQ

How do I get the Zoom client id and secret?Copied!

The Zoom app is provided by you, the developer, not by Attendee. When you input the Zoom client ID and secret, you’re specifying the Zoom app that your bot will use to join meetings. See here for instructions on how to obtain the client ID and secret.

Why can't my Zoom bot join external meetings?Copied!

Zoom bots must be approved by Zoom to join external meetings. Unapproved Zoom bots can only join meetings that are hosted by the same Zoom account that owns the bot. See here for the official announcement from Zoom. Please reach out on Slack if you need help getting your bot approved, the process is straightforward.
