1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Zoom Integration

To set up a Zoom trigger inside Pabbly Connect, start by logging into your Pabbly Connect account. This platform allows you to automate workflows between Zoom and other applications seamlessly. Once logged in, create a new workflow to begin the integration process.

Within your workflow, search for the Zoom application. Select it and proceed to choose the trigger event, which will initiate the connection process. This is where Pabbly Connect acts as the central hub for managing triggers and actions across applications.

2. Creating a Zoom App for Integration

Next, you need to create an app in your Zoom account to connect with Pabbly Connect. Navigate to your Zoom account and access the App Marketplace from the Advanced section. Here, you will find the option to build a new app, which is essential for the integration.

• Hover over ‘Develop’ and click on ‘Build App’.
• Rename your app if desired (e.g., ‘P Trigger’).
• Enter the redirect URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

After entering the redirect URL, click on continue, and you will receive a secret token. This token is crucial for connecting your Zoom app with Pabbly Connect, so make sure to copy it for the next steps.

3. Configuring Event Subscriptions in Zoom

Once you have copied the secret token, return to Pabbly Connect to paste it into the connection window. After saving the connection, you will be provided with a webhook URL. This URL needs to be added to your Zoom app for event subscriptions.

Go back to your Zoom app settings, navigate to the Event Subscription section, and turn on the subscription. Click on ‘Add New Event Subscription’ and provide a name for your subscription. It’s important to select two events for the initial setup, such as ‘Start Meeting’ and ‘Meeting Has Been Created’.

• Enter the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.
• Select the events you want to trigger the webhook.
• Click on ‘Save’ after entering all details.

Ensure that the events are correctly set up to allow Pabbly Connect to receive notifications when these events occur in Zoom.

4. Testing the Zoom Trigger with Pabbly Connect

After configuring the event subscriptions, return to Pabbly Connect and click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button. This action will put Pabbly Connect in a waiting state for a response from Zoom. To test the trigger, go back to your Zoom account and create a new meeting.

Fill in the meeting details such as name, time, and duration, then click on save. Once the meeting is created, you should see a response in Pabbly Connect indicating that the meeting has been successfully created. This confirms that your integration is working as intended.

5. Finalizing the Zoom Trigger Setup in Pabbly Connect

After successfully receiving the response for the created meeting, you can finalize your Zoom trigger setup. Go back to your Zoom app settings and remove the second event if you only want to track the ‘Start Meeting’ event. This will streamline your integration and focus on the specific triggers you need.

Click on ‘Done’ and save your changes in the Zoom app. Return to Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Recapture Webhook Response’ to ensure everything is set up correctly. Start a meeting in Zoom to confirm that the response is captured in Pabbly Connect as expected.

By following these steps, you have successfully set up a Zoom trigger inside Pabbly Connect. This integration will enable you to automate tasks effectively based on your Zoom meetings.

Conclusion

Setting up a Zoom trigger inside Pabbly Connect allows you to automate workflows efficiently. By following this guide, you can ensure seamless integration between Zoom and other applications using Pabbly Connect, enhancing your productivity.
