Hey @scott.jordan,
Thanks for joining the Zoom Developer Forum! Happy to help point you in the right direction.
What is the correct App type to be able to update calendar entries for 15-or-so users? I created a JWT app, but couldn’t find a way to add / control other users. Do I need to use OAuth? This link: Simple application to create meetings (.NET) makes me think it needs to be OAuth. I tried OAuth but it looks like I need to log in as each user each time, which could be done but would be a bit of a pain. So, now I’m thinking it may need to be the SDK. I tried running the Zoom SDK sample, but can’t figure out what goes in “sdk jwt token”, using the output from jwt.io. I suppose I could create an app in each user account, and then log in as each user to synchronize their meetings, although that doesn’t sound very efficient.
Will these users be under your Zoom account?
If your app will need to manage/access users from outside of your Zoom account, you will need to use an OAuth app and publish it on our marketplace. Alternatively, if these users would be under your account, you can use a JWT app, which is an account-wide app and is available to all the admins and owners of the account, and allows you to manage all users on your account.
What is a good way to communicate with Zoom to synchronize meetings for about 15 users from a .NET application?
To create or manage meetings, you can use our Meetings API endpoints:
https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingcreate
The Meetings endpoints have schedule_for
and alternative_hosts
fields if you wish to create meetings on other users behalves.
I went back and played with the API via JWT. That appears to work great for a single user. Is there a way to add people to my “group” so I can synchronize Zoom meetings with our proprietary calendar?
This will likely require OAuth, if these users are outside of your Zoom account.
Let me know if this is helpful!
Best,
Will
