Method to Capture Zoom URL Scheme on Launch

Meeting SDK
1

Description
By my understanding, Zoom uses the zoommtg:// custom URL scheme in order to deep-link in the installed Zoom app. Is there a supported way for a desktop app to “capture” this link and open our app instead (since we have the Zoom SDK)? I’m specifically interested in Mac at the moment, but we are using the Electron SDK so I’m curious if there is a cross-platform way to achieve that.

I’ve seen this link to an iOS issue that is similar to what I’m attempting: URL Scheme for own apps build using Zoom SDK?

Which version?
Knowing the version can help us to identify your issue faster.

To Reproduce(If applicable)
Ideally, once we have this set up, the steps would be

  1. Follow an https://zoom.us link which generates the deep link
  2. The deep link of format zoommtg:// is opened on the computer
  3. Our app with the embedded SDK opens instead of the native Zoom app

Hi @jackc,

Thanks for using Zoom SDK. There should be way to deep link or universal link to launch a MacOS app but the SDK itself does not handle this since the URL scheme won’t revoke the SDK itself directly. You may refer to the following contents:

Hope this helps. Thanks!
