Zoom Connector for SSRS

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 SSRS without coding. We will use high-performance Zoom Connector to easily connect to Zoom and then access the data inside SSRS.

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

Download Documentation

Zoom Connector for SSRS is based on ZappySys API Driver which is part of ODBC PowerPack. It is a collection of high-performance ODBC drivers that enable you to integrate data in SQL Server, SSIS, a programming language, or any other ODBC-compatible application. ODBC PowerPack supports various file formats, sources and destinations, including REST/SOAP API, SFTP/FTP, storage services, and plain files, to mention a few.

Create Data Source in ZappySys Data Gateway based on API Driver

Download and install ODBC PowerPack.
Search for gateway in start menu and Open ZappySys Data Gateway:
Go to Users Tab to add our first Gateway user. Click Add; we will give it a name tdsuser and enter password you like to give. Check Admin option and click OK to save. We will use these details later when we create linked server:
Now we are ready to add a data source. Click Add, give data source a name (Copy this name somewhere, we will need it later) and then select Native - ZappySys API Driver. Finally, click OK. And it will create the Data Set for it and open the ZS driver UI.

ZoomDSN
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:

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.

User OAuth (Granular scopes)

Zoom authentication

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

Follow the steps below to create a Zoom OAuth app and obtain the required credentials (Client ID and Client Secret):

Go to the Zoom App Marketplace and sign in with your Zoom account.
From the top navigation bar, open the Develop dropdown and select Build App.
In the What kind of app are you creating window, select General App, click the Create button.
Enter a name for your app and select the app type.
(E.g. Zoom-General App)
Click Create to continue.
In the Redirect URL for OAuth field, enter the following URI and add it to the allow list:
https://zappysys.com/oauth/
Copy your Client ID and Client Secret, then paste them into the ZappySys API Component/Driver UI under the required parameters.
From the Scopes window, please add the appropriate Granular scopes. You can search for the scopes listed below and enable them as needed.
Scope Levels:
- User-Level: Grants access only to the authenticated user’s data. Suitable for apps where users connect with their own Zoom account.
- Admin-Level: Grants access to data across all users in the account, provided the user has admin permissions. Best for organization-wide apps.
- Master-Level: Grants access at the highest level, typically for apps that need full account control (including sub-accounts). Requires Master Account credentials.
Recommended Scopes:
User-Level
- user:read:settings
- meeting:read:list_meetings
- meeting:read:meeting
- meeting:read:list_registrants

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
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 SSRS 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.
```
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.
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 SSRS:
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.
```
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).
Click OK to finish creating the data source.
Most Important Step: Now, After creating or modifying a data source in ZappySys Data Gateway, make sure to click the SAVE button to preserve your changes.
Then, RESTART the Data Gateway service to ensure all changes are properly applied.

Skipping either step may result in the new settings not taking effect.

Read data in SSRS from ZappySys Data Gateway

Open Visual Studio and create a new SSRS project
Then add a new Shared Data Source (you can create a non-shared data source inside report too):
Continue with creating the Shared Data Source. Select Microsoft SQL Server as Type and hit Build button to proceed further:
Once a window opens, configure it similarly. Configure "ZoomDSN" as database name. Finally, hit Test Connection and OK:

ZoomDSN
Another window opens, and it should look similarly to this one below which ends the creation of a Data Source:

DataSource=localhost,5000;Initial Catalog=ZoomDSN
Now it's time to create a Dataset. If you don't have a report created, in one of the wizard's steps it will look like this:

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.
Finally, once you complete the report, similar results will show up:
