This article will walk you through setting up a Zoom integration so you can use webinar modules and virtual Instructor Led classes. It covers how to set up the Zoom API Credentials, the mandatory fields to be added in the form, how to add scopes and permissions for the meeting, and how to add your Zoom API credentials to Academy of Mine.

Step 1: Setting up Zoom API Credentials

Integrating Zoom with Academy of Mine requires adding a Client ID/App SDK Key and Client secret/App SDK Secret from Zoom. If you don't have them already, detailed instructions for creating the SDK App Key and Secret can be found in the Zoom Developer Documentation.

3. In the top-left corner, click on the app name to edit the auto-generated name. We recommend to name it "AOM Meeting Integration" or similar.

   

   

   
   

4. Next, continue with the Development mode.

   
   

5. On the Basic Information tab, copy down the Client ID and the Client Secret, as these will be used later.
