Custom Events (Instant) on Zoom

Zoom Overview#

The Zoom API lets you tap into a rich set of functionalities to enhance the video conferencing experience within your own app or workflow. With the Zoom API on Pipedream, you can automatically create meetings, manage users, send meeting notifications, and more, orchestrating these actions within a broader automation. This allows for seamless integration with other services, enabling both data collection and action triggers based on Zoom events.

Pipedream workflows allow you to run any Node.js code that connects to the Zoom API. Just create a new workflow, then add prebuilt Zoom actions (create a meeting, send a chat message, etc.) or write your own code. These workflows can be triggered by HTTP requests, timers, email, or on any app-based event (new tweets, a Github PR, Zoom events, etc).

Trigger Authentication#

Zoom uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Zoom account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Zoom and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Zoom API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

Dropbox Overview#

The Dropbox API on Pipedream enables you to automate file and folder operations, streamlining workflows that involve storing, syncing, and sharing content. With this API, you can programmatically manage files, set up event-driven triggers based on changes within Dropbox, and leverage Pipedream's capabilities to connect with hundreds of other apps for extended automation scenarios. It's ideal for building custom file management solutions, archiving systems, or collaborative content workflows without writing extensive code.
