My plugin run normally until I update to newer version of Moodle and plugin (3.10).
Currently, only the admin account which have API key and secret configured can create the activity, all other account receive this message: "Unable to find your account on Zoom. If you are using Zoom for the first time, you must activate your Zoom account by logging into . Once you've activated your Zoom account, reload this page and continue setting up your meeting. Else make sure your email on Zoom matches your email on this system."
Those account are already activated and used normally in the past. Does anyone know the solution?
Thank you!
Hi,
It was actually the server time again.
I have contacted my provider again. After he synchronized the server time, the connection works fine.
Regards
after the server time settled and the connection works very well, I tested the plugin. I noticed that despite the entry of alternative moderators/hosts, they can theoretically "start" the meeting in Moodle, but actually have no more rights than normal participants:
- No start of the video conference if participants are not allowed to start the conference before the moderator.
- Tools that are actually unlocked for hosts in the host and alternate host settings are not available, e.g. breakout sessions, subtitles, security, etc.
What could be the reason here? Another missing setting? A bug?
About a solution and feedback I would be very happy, because I would prefer this plugin before the app LTI Pro.
Many greetings
After installing the plugin, I entered the key and secret as per the zoom.us website under settings -> other at the bottom of the page. I have a pro license.
Many have the issue, nobody has posted a good answer. Searching around online has not given any answers either. I have sync'd my system clock, timedatectl shows System clock synchronized: yes.
Has anybody properly solved this? If so, can you please post the solution and answer? Please?
I am also facing the same issue. The installation and configuration seems to work properly, at least it doesn't show any errors.
However when trying to add a Zoom activity to a course it shows: Zoom webservice error: Invalid access token..
Would appreciate some further information to get this solved.
Has any one got the plugin up and running over the past weeks?
First of all, great plugin. Thanks for the work on this.
I was made aware of the following error message after connecting a Moodle site to this Zoom plugin:
"Zoom received a bad request: {$a}"
The API connection is green, however this error occurs when trying to launch a meeting within a course.
Does anyone know how to resolve this?
on Moodle 3.10.1+ (Build: 20210130)
(mod_zoom_moodle310_2020120800.zip).
The plugin works fine for the admin who can
schedule and start a Webinar and for users who can
initiate the connection and participate in the synchronous activity.
But I have experienced a serious problem.
At the end of the Webinar there is no report in the session link.
Of course, I would like to point out that cron works fine
and runs the script every 15 minutes (* / 15 ****)
\ mod_zoom \ task \ get_meeting_reports
Here is an extract from the Log of Scheduled Processing

This is different with the previous version of Zoom meeting v3.3 2020091400
installed on moodle Moodle 3.8 (Build: 20191118)
that works correctly and produces reports without problems,
even if the same Zoom Host is used (same key and Secret API Zoom).
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Furthermore, it would be very interesting to be able to automatically link
the user's stay in the Webinar (the total minutes) to provide the evaluation in Moodle.
Currently, if I set the Zoom activity rating to 100 points with a pass value of 90 points,
at the end of the webinar all participants are assigned the value 100 (in the evaluation register)
without considering the actual minutes spent in the webinar.
In this way it is not possible to differentiate between
those who have followed in full, and is entitled to a certificate,
and whoever has left the Webinar early, and is not entitled to a certificate.
Thanks for the attention.
I can't understand why there is this different behavior.
Has anyone tried v3.4 on Moodle 3.10 with all the correct features?
Any help on this?
I installed correctly this plugin on my moodle area. I can start meeting successfully. I need to start multiple meetings in the same moment. I added on my zoom account, another user as administrator.
Now when I create a new meeting, I add "email@gmail.com" for example into "Alternativa host" box. The system gives me an error that is:
Zoom received a bad request: email@gmail.com is not a paying user.
I have 3 questions:
1) I need to upgrade my main account?
2) I need to upgrade also email@gmail.com account?
3) If I want to start for example 5 meetings in the same moment, I need to have 5 pro account on zoom?
Thanks
Same problem. I updated zoom plugin from v3.3 to v3.4 in Moodle 3.6 and report sessions don't work. Maybe is the new implementation that appear in change log "Used Dashboard API to improve get_meeting_reports task".
