Dear All,
I am new to this forum and hence seeking your support.
I tried so many places but somehow not getting answers on integrating Zoom for my all teachers.
I followed below steps:
1. Went to Zoom and created APP through JWT and noted the API Key and API Secret
2. Went to Moodle and provided the information in Zoom settings and scheduling of meeting was successful
Now, I have other teachers as well. So, I asked them to create APP in their account in Zoom and share the API Key and API Secret. How, can I add this information in another Zoom setting? I can see that the settings in Moodle is only one which I have already added in step 2.
Does that mean only one user can use Zoom in Moodle.
Thanks,
Ravi Rawat

You can't - you have one Zoom account for Moodle that *anybody* can use. Zoom doesn't care who the Moodle user is.

Thanks Howard for your response.
Can you please elaborate the steps.

We have one zoom account. But when other users use it it gives this error.
Looks like Zoom is matching User's email ID in Zoom and rejecting the connection.
Re: Zoom Integration in Moodle - For More than one teacher
You need a business or educational account to use this plugin. Not a personal one.
Re: Zoom Integration in Moodle - For More than one teacher
API is for whole site, which you have provided already.
now other teachers will be logging in using their own accounts (must be pro accounts) to use on moodle.
your work to integrate zoom with moodle is finished.

Hi Usman, Just to clarify your comments, all other teachers need to have Pro accounts with Zoom to connect through Moodle? if so that will mean they need to have paid accounts. We are a not for profit group and trying to use moodle and zoom. We only have 1 pro account. So that will not work?
Re: Zoom Integration in Moodle - For More than one teacher
Hello Sati,
| all other teachers need to have Pro accounts with Zoom to connect through Moodle?
No. Only you as an administrator you need to have an educational or pro-account. Then you have to set up the LTI plug-in on the Zoom website.
After that it is better to add all your teachers in the admin window on Zoom.us because if you do not do this, when a teacher would like to create a Zoom session from a Moodle course for the first time they will receive an error message asking them to be registered with your organisation. When you add an existing Zoom email user’s address, this user will receive a message inviting him/her to transfer the account under your institution (no data is lost or whatever it is just a shift without consequences).
When you add/invite a user under your institution on Zoom, you can choose the status : pro or basic. For using Zoom via Moodle and the LTI plug-in basic accounts work perfectly well.
In my own institution, we had three pro accounts (our licence allowed up to 10) and more than 100 basic users, all using Zoom from their Moodle course.
Hope this help

Thank you Dominique-Alain. I will need to check this out and get back to you. Currently anyone other than the admin receives a 2216 error.

Re: Zoom Integration in Moodle - For More than one teacher
Hi Dominique-Alain,
I have done as you suggested and it works great. However I have some questions as to sustainability of this set up. So here is how it works now
1. Admin has 1 paid account of 100 users
2. Courses are set up with different people as Teachers, who have basic zoom accounts
3. They can create zoom calls within their courses and interact with the participants.
4. These calls could overlap in time
Generally, outside of Moodle, zoom will require that you have multiple paid licences to run multiple meetings at the same time. Is it correct then that when you come through Moodle you only need 1 paid account for the organisation?
As the Moodle admin, I am trying to set this up and don't want to publish the wrong information as it will be chaotic if everyone tries to set up meetings in their courses and the times overlap.
I am thinking it cant be working through moodle that you only need 1 paid licence? Is there a limitation on duration of meeting or the number of participants? Something has to be there? Seems too good to be true ! Please help
Thanks
Chamila
Re: Zoom Integration in Moodle - For More than one teacher
I facing the problem with the zoom meeting, in which the teacher will share the meeting with the students who are enrolled in the courses.
But if I am using the admin email for zoom then it is only working for the admin, not for the teachers.
Can you let me know how could I show the zoom meeting option for the teachers with my single id, so they can share it with the students?
Re: Zoom Integration in Moodle - For More than one teacher
You cannot unless you have at more licenses. Education is $1800 a year for 20 teachers.

Hello Dr.,
I am having a similar issue trying to set up my zoom Business plan that does up to 10 Hosts, but I am getting the following error (Zoom webservice error: Invalid access token..).
What could be the issue, please? I await your feedback.
Thank you.

Re: Zoom Integration in Moodle - For More than one teacher
Did you add the 10 pro users under your ZOOM account? I would ask ZOOM support. They will point you in the right direction. Maybe, 10 pro is not enough for such an account. I think it's cheaper to have an edu account. You can have a live chat with them directly from your pro account.

Hello Dr. Nellie Deutsch,
I have sorted it out by integrating the Zoom LTI app using External Tool activity. It works well. I will share the link with you.

That's great!
Re: Zoom Integration in Moodle - For More than one teacher
Hi Dominique-Alain,
I came across this topic from Google. I have the problem of decreasing the number of required Zoom licenses. Is When I install Zoom LTI plugin (Pro or non-pro) it still requires that Moodle user should be added to my Zoom account as well.
When a basic user creates a meeting via Moodle External Tool such meeting has a limitation of 40 minutes.
Is this correct behavior of LTI integration or did I misconfigure something?

Hello Kako,
I was able to integrate my Zoom Business plan in Moodle, and my facilitators can hold Zoom classes for more than 45 mins, with 300 participants. Also, I am able to run classes concurrently with different facilitators. For you to have your teaches teach beyond 45 mins you would need a Pro, Business, or Education plan; and provide them each a license to be able to teach longer than 45 mins and hold class concurrently.
Thank you.
