How to integrate Zoom in Bubble

The simplest and most reliable way to integrate Zoom in Bubble is to use Zoom’s REST API through Bubble’s API Connector. You authenticate with Zoom using OAuth 2.0 so users can connect their Zoom account, and then you call Zoom endpoints (like “Create Meeting”) from backend workflows or page workflows.

What You Need

• A Zoom account with “App Marketplace” access
• A Zoom OAuth App (created inside marketplace)
• Bubble’s API Connector installed

Step-by-step Overview

You create a Zoom OAuth App inside Zoom → copy your Client ID and Client Secret → configure OAuth in Bubble API Connector → allow the user to “Connect to Zoom” → use the access token to call endpoints such as “Create Meeting”.

Create Zoom OAuth App

• Go to https://marketplace.zoom.us
• Create an OAuth app (not JWT)
• Set Redirect URL: your Bubble app’s OAuth redirect such as https://yourapp.bubbleapps.io/api/1.1/oauth\_redirect
• Copy Client ID + Secret

Configure API Connector

Add a new OAuth2 User-Agent Flow API. This lets each user connect their own Zoom account.

{
 "Authorize URL": "https://zoom.us/oauth/authorize",
 "Token URL": "https://zoom.us/oauth/token",
 "Client ID": "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
 "Client Secret": "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET",
 "Scope": "user:read meeting:write meeting:read"
}

After saving, click “Initiate OAuth flow” to confirm it works. Bubble will store access_token and refresh_token automatically.

Create a Meeting (Core Action)

Add a call in API Connector:

{
 "Method": "POST",
 "URL": "https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me/meetings",
 "Headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <Access-Token>" },
 "Body (JSON)": {
   "topic": "Test Meeting",
   "type": 1
 }
}

Use “Use as: Action” so you can trigger it in workflows (ex: button “Create Zoom Meeting”). Bubble will inject the stored OAuth token.

Store Meeting Info in Bubble

• Meeting URL returned by Zoom is in the field join\_url
• Save it to your Meeting data type
• Send it to the user by email or show it on the page

Best Practices

• Always run Zoom API calls in backend workflows for reliability.
• Make sure your App is “Activated” in Zoom Marketplace.
• If token errors occur, re-run OAuth authorization.
