I see that the “User Management” feature is not listed under the BASIC plan in the plans comparison.
Doesn’t that mean I can’t create users?
what if we have more than 9,999 users in our system? I don’t see the limits of users creation under the different plans. What’s the limit in the Pro plan?
For questions about our plans and pricing, I’ll kindly ask that you email our Support team here, as they’ll be best suited to confirm these details for you.
Hi there,
I’m looking at implementing some integrations using the Rest API and/or the SDK functionality provided by Zoom. From what I read here I understand that both Rest API and SDK tools are completely free to use (all API endpoints and SDK functions are available to developers regardless your plan) and any limitations would be around what your plan allows to do (e.g max number of attendees, etc).
Would it be possible to confirm this is correct please?
Thanks in advance.
While it’s free to develop with our APIs and SDKs, certain endpoints/functionalities will be limited by your account/license type. For example, you can create meetings via API under any user—but those meetings may be limited to 40 minutes if you create the meeting (via API) under a basic/free user.
Similarly, certain endpoints are only available with certain license types—for example our Cloud Recording functionality requires a Pro or higher license. In the same vein, our Cloud Recording API requires that you have a Pro or higher plan. You can see if a given endpoint requires a certain license by checking the Prerequisites section under the endpoint’s documentation:
We are considering whether Zoom has the flexibility and features we require via the APIs to support our business model.
Our questions:
Is it possible for us to map our member accounts to a Zoom account so that they don’t need to separately login to Zoom? We understand that your licensing is associated with meeting hosts and these would be paying users in our platform… but our members may only be active for a month and not again ever or for months.
Further to the question above, we understand that mapping our member account to a Zoom host account is potentially possible via a SSO mechanism and this would simplify the workflow for our members.
To ensure proper licensing we would want to embed the link to join a Zoom meeting behind a button so that only authorized users, which we manage, can join the Zoom meeting. Is this possible?
For background purposes, we are enabling virtual events and may have 1:1 as well as webinar type use cases. This means that maintaining a coherent workflow is important. Your product is solid but we would want to control what features we share with our members. We see live and recorded as valuable and it appears that these could both be possible in theory with your API.
We are trying to understand (1) feasibility and (2) pricing. There are clearly multiple business models which we have seen from vendors including usage-based and user-based. We wonder if you support a concurrent user plan or active user plan?
Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. You absolutely can use SSO to connect your corporate accounts with your Zoom account authentication.
