OAuth for Zoom Apps for Digital Signage
Consider the following when you use OAuth for authentication in your Zoom apps:
- Zoom only generates the access token and the refresh token when users add or authorize an app.
- The OAuth code expires in 5 minutes.
To ensure authenticated users can open Zoom apps in Zoom Room devices, after a user adds or authorizes the app, you must save the access token and the refresh token.
Getting the access token and the refresh token
Do the following to get the access token and refresh token:
- Access and refresh tokens bind to the accountId.
- When you launch the app in Zoom Room devices, there is a context in the header which contains the accountId and roomId. Use app client secret to decrypt the context and search for the mapping access token by accountId.
- When the access token expires, use the refresh token and clientId/Secret pair for a new access token.
