To automate sharing Zoom recordings on Slack, you first need to set up Pabbly Connect. Start by signing up for a free account on the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Once registered, log in to access your dashboard where you can create automation workflows.

Next, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow, for example, ‘Zoom to Slack’. After naming, select the desired folder for your workflow and click on ‘Create’. This initiates the process of connecting Zoom and Slack through Pabbly Connect.

2. Connecting Zoom to Pabbly Connect

In this section, you will connect your Zoom account to Pabbly Connect. In the trigger window, search for ‘Zoom’ and select it. Choose the trigger event as ‘Configure Webhook’. Click on ‘Connect’ and select ‘Add New Connection’ to proceed.

• Enter your Zoom app secret token.
• Follow the instructions to create an app on Zoom’s Marketplace.
• Use the callback URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

After retrieving the secret token, paste it into Pabbly Connect and click ‘Save’. This establishes the connection between Zoom and Pabbly Connect, allowing you to receive meeting recording details.

3. Configuring the Zoom App for Webhook Notifications

To receive notifications for completed Zoom meetings, configure your Zoom app. In the Zoom Marketplace, navigate to the ‘Event Subscription’ section and enable it. Click on ‘Add New Event Subscription’ and select the method as ‘Webhook’.

• Name your subscription (e.g., ‘Slack Notification’).
• Select the event ‘All Recordings Completed’.
• Paste the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.

After configuring these settings, save your changes. This setup ensures that whenever a meeting recording is completed, the details will be sent to Pabbly Connect for further processing.

4. Sending Zoom Recording Details to Slack

After successfully capturing the Zoom recording details in Pabbly Connect, you can now send this information to your Slack channel. In the action step of your workflow, search for ‘Slack’ and select it. Choose the action event as ‘Send Channel Message’.

Connect your Slack account to Pabbly Connect by clicking on ‘Connect with Slack’. Choose between a user-based or bot-based connection. For this example, select user-based and click ‘Allow’ to grant access.

Select the channel where messages will be sent. Map the message to include the meeting name and recording link. Customize any additional message details as needed.

Once your message is set up, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This sends the message to your selected Slack channel, confirming that the integration between Zoom and Slack via Pabbly Connect is functioning correctly.

5. Testing the Automation Workflow

With everything set up, it’s time to test your automation workflow. Start a Zoom meeting and record it. Once the meeting concludes, Pabbly Connect will capture the recording details automatically.

Check the Slack channel you configured to see if the message with the recording link has been sent. This confirms that the integration is working as intended. You can repeat this process with different meetings to ensure consistency.

Remember, you can also clone this workflow in Pabbly Connect for other purposes. This flexibility allows you to adapt the automation to meet your needs effectively. Enjoy the benefits of seamless integration!

Conclusion
