Connect Your Zoom Account

Securely link your Zoom account to enable meeting creation and management.

Connect Your Zoom Account
🔍

Click the 'Connect with Zoom' button to authorize Ukkera to create and manage meetings on your behalf. This process is secure and follows OAuth 2.0 standards.

💡 Helpful Tips
  • You need a valid Zoom account (Basic, Pro, or Business)
  • The authorization is secure and can be revoked anytime
  • Your Zoom credentials are never stored on our servers
🔧 Troubleshooting
  • Make sure you are logged into Zoom in your browser
  • Check if your Zoom account has API access enabled
  • Try clearing browser cache if connection fails

To provide this functionality, our application requests the following Zoom OAuth scopes:

  • Meetings: Create, update, view, and delete meetings; manage meeting templates, participants, registrants, and meeting status; access meeting summaries and past meeting information.
  • Users: View basic user information and tokens; update user profiles, features, and settings where required to link an instructor’s Zoom account to the platform.

We use these permissions solely to support educational features such as scheduling and managing classes. Other meeting or user data is accessed only in real time when required and is never stored.

Note: Our application only stores the Zoom Meeting ID, a hashed Meeting Password, and encrypted OAuth tokens. No other Zoom data is retained.
