The Zoom Recordings card is built using the new Appspace integration with third-party systems that leverages standard technologies to create long-lived, authenticated, and secure connections. The Zoom Recordings card allows users with a Zoom account to access and display a recording of their Zoom Meeting (such as conference calls or town hall meetings), ideal for keeping the workforce, in the office or working remotely, well informed.

An initial connection must be established between Appspace and a Zoom service account, which is then stored in a virtual passport in Appspace and can be used until the service account revokes or cancels the integration. The passport will allow the card to establish a connection with the third-party system at runtime.

Important
Only one recording can be displayed in the card at any one time. The recording will be streamed directly from the Zoom site. The card or device will not store the content locally.
Note
Read more about the integration architecture and how it all connects here in the Introduction to Appspace Integrations.
Important
Please refer to our Introduction to Cards guide for an in-depth introduction to the types of cards that are ideal for your signage solutions. Visit our Appspace Card Gallery to find the perfect card to deliver your message.

Apart from displaying the Zoom Meeting recording, the following customizations, features, and functionality are available for the Zoom Recording card:

  • Display only one Zoom Meeting recording on the card at any one time.
