Hello Zoom Developer Team,
I am developing a personal Learning Management System (LMS) that uses the Zoom Meeting SDK to host and join Zoom sessions.
I am planning to publish my LMS mobile app on the Google Play Store, but I will not publish my Zoom SDK app publicly on the Zoom Marketplace.
Here’s my use case:
I have a Zoom Pro account, and all meetings are hosted only by me (the same Zoom account that created the SDK app).
My LMS has about 3,000 students, but they only join my meetings through the mobile app — they don’t have their own Zoom accounts.
The Meeting SDK credentials (SDK Key and Secret) belong to my personal Zoom account and are used only in my backend server to generate meeting signatures.
My LMS mobile app uses WebView( I use Zoom Web SDK ) to join meetings.
I am not allowing any third-party users to integrate their Zoom accounts or access Zoom APIs.
Because of this, I’d like to avoid submitting my Zoom SDK app for Production, since it is a private, personal integration.
However, since my mobile app will be on the Play Store, I want to confirm if this is acceptable under Zoom’s policy.
So, I have a few questions:
Can I keep my Zoom Meeting SDK app in Development mode permanently, even though my LMS mobile app (which uses it) is published on Google Play?
Are there any technical or account limitations when using the Meeting SDK in Development mode for this setup?
Do I need to fill out the Privacy Policy or Terms of Service fields for the Zoom SDK app if it will remain private and is not submitted to the Zoom App Marketplace?
Thank you for your time and clarification. I want to make sure I follow Zoom’s guidelines properly before publishing my LMS mobile app.
Best regards,
