Zoom Connector for Azure Data Factory (Pipeline)

Zoom Connector can be used to integrate Zoom REST API in your App / BI Tools. You can read/write data about Meetings, Invite, Users, Accounts and more.

In this article you will learn how to quickly and efficiently integrate Zoom data in Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) without coding. We will use high-performance Zoom Connector to easily connect to Zoom and then access the data inside Azure Data Factory (Pipeline).

Let's follow the steps below to see how we can accomplish that!

Create ODBC Data Source (DSN) based on ZappySys API Driver

Step-by-step instructions

To get data from Zoom using Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) we first need to create a DSN (Data Source) which will access data from Zoom. We will later be able to read data using Azure Data Factory (Pipeline). Perform these steps:

  1. Download and install ODBC PowerPack.

  2. Open ODBC Data Sources (x64):

    Open ODBC Data Source
  3. Create a User data source (User DSN) based on ZappySys API Driver

    ZappySys API Driver
    Create new User DSN for ZappySys API Driver
    • Create and use User DSN if the client application is run under a User Account. This is an ideal option in design-time, when developing a solution, e.g. in Visual Studio 2019. Use it for both type of applications - 64-bit and 32-bit.
    • Create and use System DSN if the client application is launched under a System Account, e.g. as a Windows Service. Usually, this is an ideal option to use in a production environment. Use ODBC Data Source Administrator (32-bit), instead of 64-bit version, if Windows Service is a 32-bit application.
    Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) uses a Service Account, when a solution is deployed to production environment, therefore for production environment you have to create and use a System DSN.
  4. When the Configuration window appears give your data source a name if you haven't done that already, then select "Zoom" from the list of Popular Connectors. If "Zoom" is not present in the list, then click "Search Online" and download it. Then set the path to the location where you downloaded it. Finally, click Continue >> to proceed with configuring the DSN:

    ZoomDSN
    Zoom
    ODBC DSN Template Selection
  5. Now it's time to configure the Connection Manager. Select Authentication Type, e.g. Token Authentication. Then select API Base URL (in most cases, the default one is the right one). More info is available in the Authentication section.

    OAuth App must be created under Admin Console > Channel > API > Settings. [API reference]

    Steps how to get and use Zoom credentials : OAuth Authentication [OAuth]

    Perform the following steps to get the Zoom OAuth credentials (i.e. Client ID and Client Secret)

    1. Go to Zoom Marketplace Portal and sign in there.
    2. Once you successfully login then select "Build App" option from Develop dropdown from top left on the page.
    3. Click on Create button of OAuth panel section of page.
    4. Enter the name for your application and choose app type (Recommneded "Account-Level App") option for your API
    5. Then proceed with clicking Create button.
    6. In Redirect URL for OAuth enter this https://zappysys.com/oauth as Redirect URI and add it to allow lists.
    7. Copy Client ID and Client Secret here and paste it into Connection Manager Required Paramters section in respective place holders
    8. Add appropiate scopes from the Scopes menu option to the right side of page for your API as below :
      • meeting:read;
      • meeting:write;
      • user:read;
      • user:write;
      • user_info:read;
      • meeting:read:admin;
      • chat_channel:read;
      • chat_channel:write;
      • chat_contact:read;
      • chat_message:read;
      • chat_message:write;
      • contact:read;
      • pac:read;
      • pac:write;
      • phone:read;
      • phone:write
      • phone_call_control:read;
      • phone_call_control:write;
      • phone_call_log:read;
      • phone_call_log:write;
      • phone_e911:read;
      • phone_recording:read;
      • phone_recording:write;
      • phone_sms:read;
      • phone_sms:write;
      • phone_voicemail:read;
      • phone_voicemail:write;
      • recording:read;
      • recording:write;
      • tsp:read
      • tsp:write;
      • user:read;
      • user:write;
      • user_info:read;
      • user_zak:read;
      • webinar:read;
      • webinar:write
    9. Click Generate Token button on Connection Manager UI to generate tokens.
    10. That's it!

    Fill in all required parameters and set optional parameters if needed:

    ZoomDSN
    Zoom
    OAuth Authentication [OAuth]
    https://api.zoom.us/v2
    Required Parameters
    ClientId Fill-in the parameter...
    ClientSecret Fill-in the parameter...
    RedirectUrl Fill-in the parameter...
    TokenUrl Fill-in the parameter...
    AuthorizationUrl Fill-in the parameter...
    Optional Parameters
    Scope
    RetryMode RetryWhenStatusCodeMatch
    RetryStatusCodeList 429
    RetryCountMax 5
    RetryMultiplyWaitTime True
    ODBC DSN Oauth Connection Configuration

  6. Once the data source connection has been configured, it's time to configure the SQL query. Select the Preview tab and then click Query Builder button to configure the SQL query:

    ZappySys API Driver - Zoom
    Zoom Connector can be used to integrate Zoom REST API in your App / BI Tools. You can read/write data about Meetings, Invite, Users, Accounts and more.
    ZoomDSN
    Open Query Builder in API ODBC Driver to read and write data to REST API
  7. Start by selecting the Table or Endpoint you are interested in and then configure the parameters. This will generate a query that we will use in Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) to retrieve data from Zoom. Hit OK button to use this query in the next step.

    SELECT *  FROM Meetings 
    WITH(
      UserId ='me' -- enter user id or email
    )
    --You can get UserId by selecting from 'list_users' endpoint and also this value available as dropdown value for UserId parameter.
    Configure table/endpoint parameters in ODBC data source based on API Driver
    Some parameters configured in this window will be passed to the Zoom API, e.g. filtering parameters. It means that filtering will be done on the server side (instead of the client side), enabling you to get only the meaningful data much faster.
  8. Now hit Preview Data button to preview the data using the generated SQL query. If you are satisfied with the result, use this query in Azure Data Factory (Pipeline):

    ZappySys API Driver - Zoom
    Zoom Connector can be used to integrate Zoom REST API in your App / BI Tools. You can read/write data about Meetings, Invite, Users, Accounts and more.
    ZoomDSN
    SELECT *  FROM Meetings 
    WITH(
      UserId ='me' -- enter user id or email
    )
    --You can get UserId by selecting from 'list_users' endpoint and also this value available as dropdown value for UserId parameter.
    API ODBC Driver-based data source data preview
    You can also access data quickly from the tables dropdown by selecting <Select table>.
    A WHERE clause, LIMIT keyword will be performed on the client side, meaning that the whole result set will be retrieved from the Zoom API first, and only then the filtering will be applied to the data. If possible, it is recommended to use parameters in Query Builder to filter the data on the server side (in Zoom servers).
  9. Click OK to finish creating the data source.

    DSN=ZoomDSN
    Configure new ODBC service
  12. For created ODBC service create ODBC-based dataset:

    Add new ODBC dataset
  13. Go to your pipeline and add Copy data connector into the flow. In Source section use OdbcDataset we created as a source dataset:

    Set source in Copy data
  14. Then go to Sink section and select a destination/sink dataset. In this example we use precreated AzureBlobStorageDataset which saves data into an Azure Blob:

    Set sink in Copy data
  15. Finally, run the pipeline and see data being transferred from OdbcDataset to your destination dataset:

    Run the flow
