Zoom Admin

Zoom Admin

Access the Zoom API with managed OAuth authentication and admin-level scopes. Manage users, meetings, webinars, recordings, and account settings.

Quick Start

# List users in your Zoom account
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/zoom-admin/v2/users?status=active&page_size=30')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://api.maton.ai/zoom-admin/{native-api-path}

Replace {native-api-path} with the actual Zoom API endpoint path (e.g., v2/users, v2/meetings/123). The gateway proxies requests to api.zoom.us and automatically injects your OAuth token.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Getting Your API Key

1. Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
2. Go to maton.ai/settings
3. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your Zoom Admin OAuth connections at https://api.maton.ai.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections?app=zoom-admin&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'zoom-admin'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response:

{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "{connection_id}",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "zoom-admin",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Specifying Connection

If you have multiple Zoom Admin connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/zoom-admin/v2/users?status=active')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '{connection_id}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If you have multiple connections, always include this header to ensure requests go to the intended account.

Security & Permissions

• No implicit access: The MATON_API_KEY alone cannot access Zoom. The user must explicitly authorize a Zoom account via OAuth through Maton's connect flow.
• Scoped access: Access is limited to the specific Zoom account the user authorized. Admin scopes grant read/write access to users, meetings, webinars, and recordings within that account only.
• Write safeguards: All write operations (POST, PATCH, PUT, DELETE) require explicit user approval. Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the exact target resource, account, and intended effect with the user.
• Least privilege: Connect only the intended Zoom account. Revoke or delete the connection when it is no longer needed.
• Data handling: API requests and responses flow through Maton's gateway, which handles OAuth token injection. No credentials are stored in this skill or exposed to the agent.

Pagination

Zoom uses token-based pagination via next_page_token. Tokens expire after 15 minutes.

# First page
GET /zoom-admin/v2/users?page_size=30

# Next page
GET /zoom-admin/v2/users?page_size=30&next_page_token={next_page_token}

Response includes pagination fields:

{
  "page_size": 30,
  "total_records": 100,
  "next_page_token": "B4Tr0tLbJKQMnChspbYH7UUvt7g0UeDQNh2"
}

When next_page_token is empty, there are no more pages. Do not reuse expired tokens — start from the first page if a token expires.

Code Examples

JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://api.maton.ai/zoom-admin/v2/users?status=active&page_size=10',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();

Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://api.maton.ai/zoom-admin/v2/users',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'},
    params={'status': 'active', 'page_size': 10}
)
data = response.json()

Notes

• The zoom-admin app uses admin-level OAuth scopes that grant access to all users in the Zoom account
• Meeting IDs are integers; UUIDs are base64-encoded strings. Both can be used in most endpoints
• UUIDs starting with / or containing // must be double-URL-encoded when used in path parameters
• Webinar endpoints require a Webinar add-on plan on the Zoom account
• Account Settings endpoint (/v2/accounts/me/settings) requires a paid Zoom plan
• Zoom enforces a limit of 100 meeting create/update operations per day per user
• IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing
• IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments

Error Handling

Zoom Rate Limits

Rate-limited responses include a Retry-After header.

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

1. Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

1. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

1. Ensure your URL path starts with zoom-admin. For example:

• Correct: https://api.maton.ai/zoom-admin/v2/users
• Incorrect: https://api.maton.ai/v2/users
