How to integrate Zoom with Adalo?

Step 1: Set Up a Zoom App

  1. Log in to the Zoom Marketplace using your Zoom account credentials.
  2. Click on the "Develop" dropdown on the top-right corner and select "Build App."
  3. Choose the "JWT" app type for easier integration with Adalo.
  4. Fill out the basic information and click "Create."
  5. Under the "App Credentials" tab, take note of the API Key and API Secret. These will be necessary for integration within Adalo.
  6. Under the "Feature" tab, enable the required scopes based on your specific needs (for example, "Meeting: Write," "User: Read").

Step 2: Configure Adalo to Store Zoom API Keys

  1. Open your Adalo app.
  2. Go to the "Database" section.
  3. Add a new collection and name it something like "API Keys."
  4. Add two properties to this collection:
    • API Key (Text)
    • API Secret (Text)
  5. Create a new record in this collection and enter the Zoom API Key and API Secret obtained in Step 1.

Step 3: Create Input Fields for Zoom Meeting Details

  1. Navigate to the screen where users will input details for scheduling a Zoom meeting.
  2. Add necessary input fields such as:
    • Meeting Topic (Text Input)
    • Start Time (Date/Time Picker)
    • Duration (Number Input)

Step 4: Set Up the Custom Action in Adalo

  1. In Adalo, go to the "Actions" menu and select "Custom Actions."

  2. Click on "New Custom Action" and name it something like "Create Zoom Meeting."

  3. Set the method to "POST" and the API URL to:
    ```
    https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me/meetings
    ```

  4. In the Headers section, add the following key-value pairs:

    • Authorization: Bearer [Your JWT Token] (you can generate the JWT Token using the API Key and API Secret)
    • Content-Type: application/json
  5. In the Body section, format it using JSON to include dynamic inputs, e.g.:
    ```json
    {
    "topic": "[Input Topic]",
    "start_time": "[Input Start Time]",
    "duration": "[Input Duration]",
    "type": 2
    }
    ```

  6. Test the custom action and make sure it functions correctly.

Step 5: Connect the Custom Action to Your Adalo Form

  1. Return to the screen where the form is located.
  2. Set up a "Submit" button or action.
  3. Link it to a custom action - in this case, "Create Zoom Meeting."
  4. Make sure all input fields are correctly mapped to the custom action parameters set up in Step 4.

Step 6: Display the Meeting Details

  1. Create a new screen or modal to display the meeting details (e.g., Meeting URL, start time).
  2. Ensure the custom action also updates your Adalo database to store the newly created meeting details.
  3. Configure the new screen or modal to dynamically fetch and display these details.

Step 7: Test Your Integration

  1. Create a test meeting to ensure the entire process works end-to-end.
  2. Check your Zoom account to confirm the meeting has been scheduled as expected.

This structured integration will enable the automation of scheduling Zoom meetings from within an Adalo app.
