Zoom's skill for receiving Zoom events over a persistent WebSocket connection instead of webhooks.

What the skill teaches

Zoom's skill for receiving Zoom events over a persistent WebSocket connection instead of webhooks. It compares the two, noting lower latency and no public endpoint for WebSockets but more setup, and suggests WebSockets for security-sensitive fields such as banking or healthcare. It walks through creating a Server-to-Server OAuth app, enabling a WebSocket subscription and connecting, then covers the event format, common events, keep-alive messages, reconnection and the single-connection limit, and explains how WebSockets differ from RTMS media streams.

Capabilities

  • Receive Zoom events over a WebSocket
  • Keep a Zoom WebSocket connection alive and reconnect
  • Choose between webhooks and WebSockets
