Migrate your Zoom connection authentication type from JWT to OAuth 2.0

Zoom is going to deprecate the JWT authentication type and recommends using OAuth 2.0 authentication instead. The JWT app type authorization will be disabled from September 01, 2023. Hence, all Zoom administrators should migrate connections that were configured with the JWT authentication to OAuth 2.0 at the earliest opportunity.

As part of this migration, Celigo will remove the JWT authentication type in the Zoom connection with the 2023.7.1 release, scheduled for early July 2023. 

This article explains the deprecation timelines and how to migrate the Zoom connection authentication type from JWT to OAuth 2.0 in integrator.io.
