How to integrate Zoom using Talend Studio

Integrate Talend Studio and Zoom
Integrate Talend Studio and Zoom

Learn how to quickly and efficiently connect Zoom with Talend Studio for smooth data access.

Read and write Zoom data effortlessly. Integrate, manage, and automate meetings, users, accounts, and invitations — almost no coding required. You can do it all using the high-performance Zoom ODBC Driver for Talend Studio (often referred to as the Zoom Connector). We'll walk you through the entire setup.

Create data source in ZappySys Data Gateway

In this section we will create a data source for Zoom in the Data Gateway. Let's follow these steps to accomplish that:

  1. Download and install ODBC PowerPack (if you haven't already).

  2. Search for gateway in the Windows Start Menu and open ZappySys Data Gateway Configuration:

    Open ZappySys Data Gateway Service Manager
  3. Go to the Users tab and follow these steps to add a Data Gateway user:

    • Click the Add button
    • In the Login field enter a username, e.g., john
    • Then enter a Password
    • Check the Is Administrator checkbox
    • Click OK to save
    Data Gateway - Add User
  4. Now we are ready to add a data source:

    • Click the Add button
    • Give the Data source a name (have it handy for later)
    • Then select Native - ZappySys API Driver
    • Finally, click OK
    ZoomDSN
    ZappySys API Driver
    Data Gateway - Add data source
  5. 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
  6. 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.

    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):

    1. Go to the Zoom App Marketplace and sign in with your Zoom account.
    2. From the top navigation bar, open the Develop dropdown and select Build App.
    3. In the What kind of app are you creating window, select General App, click the Create button.
    4. Enter a name for your app and select the app type.
      (E.g. Zoom-General App)
    5. Click Create to continue.
    6. In the Redirect URL for OAuth field, enter the following URI and add it to the allow list:
      https://zappysys.com/oauth/
    7. Copy your Client ID and Client Secret, then paste them into the ZappySys API Component/Driver UI under the required parameters.
    8. 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.

  7. 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:

    Read and write Zoom data effortlessly. Integrate, manage, and automate meetings, users, accounts, and invitations — almost no coding required.
    ZoomDSN
    Open Query Builder in API ODBC Driver to read and write data to REST API
  8. 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 Talend Studio 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
    )
    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.
  9. 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 Talend Studio:

    ZappySys API Driver - Zoom
    Read and write Zoom data effortlessly. Integrate, manage, and automate meetings, users, accounts, and invitations — almost no coding required.
    ZoomDSN
    SELECT * FROM Meetings 
    WITH(
      UserId ='me' -- enter user id or email
    )
    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).
  10. Click OK to finish creating the data source.

  11. Once done, go to the Network Settings tab and Add a firewall rule for inbound traffic:

    Data Gateway - Add firewall rule for inbound connections
    • This will initially allow all inbound traffic.
    • Click Edit IP filters to restrict access to specific IP addresses or ranges.
  12. Crucial Step: After creating or modifying the data source, you must:

    • Click the Save button to persist your changes.
    • Hit Yes when prompted to restart the Data Gateway service.

    This ensures all changes are properly applied:

    ZappySys Data Gateway - Save Changes
    Skipping this step may cause the new settings to fail, preventing you from connecting to the data source.

Read Zoom data in Talend Studio

To read Zoom data in Talend Studio, we'll need to complete several steps. Let's get through them all right away!

This article is compatible with Talend Open Studio (a free version, currently retired by Qlik). If you don't have it, you can still purchase a shareware version of Talend Studio from Qlik.

Create connection for input

  1. First of all, open Talend Studio
  2. Create a new connection: Creating a new connection in Talend Studio
  3. Select Microsoft SQL Server connection: Creating SQL Server connection in Talend Studio
  4. Name your connection: Naming a connection in Talend Studio
  5. Fill-in connection parameters and then click Test connection:
    ZoomDSN
    Configuring the ZappySys Data Gateway connection in Talend Studio
  6. If the List of modules not installed for this operation window shows up, then download and install all of them: Configure the connection
    Review and accept all additional module license agreements during the process
  7. Finally, you should see a successful connection test result at the end: Connection test successful

Add input

  1. Once we have a connection to ZappySys Data Gateway created, we can proceed by creating a job:

    Create a job in Talend Studio
  2. Simply drag and drop ZappySys Data Gateway connection onto the job:

    Creating an input based on ZappySys Data Gateway connection
  3. Then create an input based on ZappySys Data Gateway connection:

    Creating an input based on ZappySys Data Gateway connection
  4. Continue by configuring a SQL query and click Guess schema button:

    Configuring a SQL query in Talend Studio
  5. Finish by configuring the schema, for example:

    Configuring a schema in Talend Studio

Add output

We are ready to add an output. From Palette drag and drop a tFileOutputDelimited output and connect it to the input: Connecting tFileOutputDelimited output in Talend Studio

Run the job

Finally, run the job and integrate your Zoom data: Integrating Zoom data in Talend Studio

Supported Zoom Connector actions

Got a specific use case in mind? We've mapped out exactly how to perform a variety of essential Zoom operations directly in Talend Studio, so you don't have to figure out the setup from scratch. Check out the step-by-step guides below:
