# Zoom API Integration on Truto



**Category:** Video  
**Status:** Generally available

## Unified APIs

### Unified User Directory API

- **Activities** — Activities are the actions performed by users in the source application.
- **Billing** — Billing object represents a Bill
- **Licenses** — Licenses represent concepts like user seats in apps that support them
- **Roles** — The Role object represents a role of a User.
- **Users** — The User object represents a User.
- **Utilization** — Utilization object represents utilization reports.

## How it works

1. **Link your customer's Zoom account.** Use Truto's frontend SDK; we handle every OAuth and API key flow so you don't need to create the OAuth app.
2. **Authentication is automatic.** Truto refreshes tokens, stores credentials securely, and injects them into every API request.
3. **Call Truto's API to reach Zoom.** The Proxy API is a 1-to-1 mapping of the Zoom API.
4. **Get a unified response format.** Every response uses a single shape, with cursor-based pagination and data in the `result` field.

## Use cases

- **Optimize Zoom license spend across your customers' organizations** — SaaS companies building IT asset management or SaaS spend platforms can pull Zoom user directory, license assignment, and utilization data to identify underused paid seats and recommend or automate downgrades — saving their customers real money.
- **Automate Zoom user provisioning and deprovisioning** — HR platforms and identity management tools can sync employee lifecycle events to Zoom, ensuring new hires get the right Zoom license on day one and departed employees are promptly removed, reducing security risk and license waste.
- **Centralize user directory and role management across communication tools** — Security and compliance platforms need a unified view of who has access to what. By integrating Zoom's user directory and role data alongside other SaaS tools, they can enforce access policies and audit role assignments from a single pane.
- **Surface Zoom usage analytics in workforce intelligence dashboards** — Workforce analytics and digital employee experience platforms can pull Zoom activity and utilization data to measure collaboration patterns, identify disengaged teams, and inform decisions about tool adoption and training.

## What you can build

- **Automated license right-sizing engine** — Detect Zoom Pro users who haven't hosted a meeting in 30+ days using utilization data and trigger automatic downgrades to Basic licenses to cut SaaS spend.
- **Cross-platform user directory sync** — Keep Zoom user accounts in sync with your customers' HRIS or identity provider, provisioning and deprovisioning users as employees join or leave the organization.
- **Role-based access audit reports** — Pull Zoom role assignments alongside other SaaS tools to generate compliance-ready reports showing which users hold admin or privileged roles.
- **License allocation dashboard** — Visualize Zoom billing and license distribution across departments so IT teams can forecast costs and reallocate seats proactively.
- **Activity-based user health scores** — Combine Zoom activity and utilization metrics with data from other tools to compute per-user engagement scores that surface in your workforce analytics product.
- **Onboarding readiness checklist** — Automatically verify that a new hire's Zoom account is created, a license is assigned, and the correct role is applied as part of a broader IT onboarding workflow.

## FAQs

### What authentication methods does the Zoom integration support?

Zoom uses OAuth 2.0 for user-level and account-level access. Truto handles the full OAuth flow, token storage, and automatic refresh so your application never deals with expired credentials.

### Which Zoom data is available through Truto's Unified User Directory API?

The Unified User Directory API maps to Zoom's Users, Roles, Licenses, Activities, Billing, and Utilization resources — giving you a normalized view of who exists in a Zoom account, what license and role they hold, and how actively they use the platform.

### Does Truto handle Zoom API rate limits?

Yes. Truto manages pagination and respects Zoom's rate-limit headers automatically, including retry logic with backoff, so your application doesn't need to implement rate-limit handling.

### Can I access Zoom meeting recordings or create meetings through this integration?

The current Unified API coverage focuses on user directory, licensing, roles, and utilization. Meeting and recording-specific tools are not available out of the box but can be built on request to match your use case.

### How fresh is the data returned by the Zoom integration?

Data is fetched in real time from Zoom's API on each request through Truto, so you always get the latest state of users, licenses, and activity rather than a stale cache.

### What Zoom account types are supported?

The integration works with Zoom Pro, Business, and Enterprise accounts that support OAuth-based API access. Basic (free) accounts have limited API surface and may not expose all user directory or billing data.
