Zoom
Connect Zoom's official MCP server to search meetings and recordings, read transcripts, and work with Zoom Docs and Zoom Hub.
Runbear connects to Zoom's official MCP server over OAuth. Your agent can search Zoom content on demand, read meeting and recording assets, and create or read content in Zoom Docs and Zoom Hub.
Before you begin
You need access to a Runbear agent and a Zoom account that you can authorize. Your Zoom account administrator may need to approve Runbear before you can complete authorization.
Available features depend on the connected Zoom user's plan, enabled products, and permissions:
| Feature | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Meeting search and assets | Access to the relevant meetings and their available assets |
| AI Companion search | AI Companion enabled with searchable content available to the user |
| Cloud recordings | An eligible Zoom plan with Cloud Recording enabled |
| Zoom Docs | Zoom Docs enabled with permission to read or create documents |
| Zoom Hub | Zoom Hub enabled with permission to read or create files |
Add Zoom to an agent
- In the Runbear dashboard, open the agent you want to configure.
- Open Tools and search for Zoom.
- Select Zoom (Official MCP — Beta). Do not select Zoom (Pipedream — Legacy) for this connection.
- Select an authorization method:
- Per-User: Each member connects their own Zoom account. Results and actions use that member's Zoom permissions.
- Shared: One Zoom account is connected for everyone using the agent. Results and actions use the shared account's Zoom permissions.
- Sign in to the Zoom account you want the agent to use and approve the requested permissions.
- Return to Runbear and confirm that the Zoom tile shows as connected.
A personal agent has one owner and uses that owner's Zoom connection.
Use Zoom
Ask the agent for the outcome you want; it selects the appropriate Zoom tool. With Per-User authorization, results are limited to content the current member can access. With Shared authorization, everyone using the agent accesses Zoom through the shared account and its permissions.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
Search Zoom (search_zoom) | Searches across the user's Zoom Meetings, Team Chat, and Zoom Docs |
Search Meetings (search_meetings) | Searches meetings by keyword or date and returns matching meeting details |
Get Meeting Assets (get_meeting_assets) | Lists available meeting assets such as summaries, recordings, whiteboards, Zoom Docs, and agendas |
List Recordings (recordings_list) | Lists the user's cloud recordings |
Get Recording Content (get_recording_resource) | Retrieves a recording's transcript, summary, next steps, and playback link |
Create Zoom Doc (create_new_file_with_markdown) | Creates a Zoom Doc from Markdown content |
Get Zoom Doc Content (get_file_content) | Reads a Zoom Doc and returns its content as Markdown |
Create Zoom Hub File (hub_create_file_from_content) | Creates a document, paper document, or spreadsheet in Zoom Hub |
Get Zoom Hub File Content (hub_get_file_content) | Reads the content of a file stored in Zoom Hub |
For example:
- "Find my customer meetings from last week."
- "Get the transcript and action items from yesterday's product review."
- "Create a Zoom Doc from these launch notes."
- "Create a Zoom Hub spreadsheet from this milestone table."
Review write actions before asking the agent to create content. Files created through the integration are regular Zoom content and remain in Zoom until someone deletes them there.
Verify the connection
After connecting Zoom, open a conversation with the agent and ask it to list your upcoming Zoom meetings. Confirm that the results match meetings visible to the same user in Zoom.
If your account has Cloud Recording, Zoom Docs, or Zoom Hub enabled, test those features separately. A feature may return no result or an authorization error when the connected user does not have the required product, plan, content, or permission.
Remove the integration
To stop the agent from using Zoom:
- In Runbear, open the agent's Tools tab.
- Open the more-options menu on Zoom (Official MCP — Beta) and select Disconnect.
Disconnecting in Runbear removes Zoom from that agent, but it does not by itself remove the app authorization from the Zoom account. To revoke that authorization as well:
- Open the Zoom App Marketplace while signed in to the connected Zoom account.
- Open Manage, then Added Apps.
- Find Runbear and select Remove.
For Per-User authorization, each member who connected Zoom must remove Runbear from their own Zoom account to revoke their individual grant. For Shared authorization, the owner of the shared Zoom account removes Runbear once to revoke access for everyone using the agent.
Data after removal
- Disconnecting Zoom from the agent stops new Zoom requests for everyone using that agent.
- Revoking one Per-User authorization stops Zoom access for that member but does not revoke other members' authorizations.
- Revoking the Shared authorization stops Zoom access through the shared account for everyone using the agent.
- Removing the integration does not delete meetings, recordings, Zoom Docs, or Zoom Hub files in Zoom, including content created through the integration.
- Existing Runbear conversations that contain tool results are not automatically deleted when a tool is disconnected.
- The integration accesses Zoom content on demand; it does not add Zoom content to a Runbear knowledge-base sync.
- Runbear handles retained account and conversation data under the Privacy Policy. To request access to or deletion of personal information, email contact@runbear.io.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | What to check |
|---|---|
| The official Zoom tile is missing | Confirm you are in the intended Runbear organization. The official integration may be enabled gradually; contact support@runbear.io if it remains unavailable. |
| Zoom blocks authorization | Ask your Zoom account administrator to approve the Runbear app, then try again. |
| The authorization window does not open | Allow pop-ups for Runbear and retry from the Zoom tile. |
| The connection shows that authorization is required | Reconnect the tile and complete Zoom OAuth again. This can happen after a Zoom administrator or user revokes the grant. |
| Searches return no results | Confirm that the connected Zoom user can see the content directly in Zoom and that your request includes a useful keyword or date range. |
| Recording tools fail | Confirm that the connected user has an eligible Zoom plan and Cloud Recording is enabled. |
| Zoom Docs or Zoom Hub tools fail | Confirm that the relevant Zoom product is enabled for the connected user and that the user can create or read the same content in Zoom. |
| You see data from the wrong account | Disconnect, sign out of other Zoom accounts in the browser, and reconnect with the intended account. |
If a step fails, include the agent name, approximate time, tool name, and non-sensitive error text when contacting support@runbear.io. Do not send OAuth tokens, passwords, recording content, or other sensitive data.
