Zoom MCP Server

The Zoom MCP Server is a lightweight, standards‑compliant interface that lets AI assistants such as Claude or Cursor manage Zoom meetings without writing custom API wrappers. By exposing a set of declarative tools—, , , and —the server turns the native Zoom REST endpoints into a single, predictable MCP payload. This abstraction allows developers to focus on higher‑level workflow logic rather than authentication plumbing or HTTP details.

Why It Matters

Zoom is a ubiquitous collaboration platform, yet its API requires OAuth credentials, token refresh logic, and careful parameter validation. For AI‑driven applications that need to schedule, modify, or cancel meetings on the fly (e.g., an assistant that books a follow‑up meeting after a conversation), the Zoom MCP Server eliminates these friction points. Instead of embedding OAuth flows in every client, developers can delegate that responsibility to the server and simply call well‑defined tools with JSON arguments.

Key Features & Capabilities

• Unified Toolset: Four core tools cover the entire lifecycle of a meeting—listing, creating, updating, and deleting.
• Schema Validation: Each tool’s parameters are rigorously checked with Zod schemas, ensuring that malformed requests never reach Zoom and reducing runtime errors.
• OAuth Integration: The server handles the Server‑to‑Server OAuth flow automatically, refreshing tokens as needed and exposing a single configuration point for client ID, secret, and account ID.
• MCP‑Ready: The server speaks the Model Context Protocol natively, so Claude or Cursor can invoke tools without additional adapters.

Use Cases & Real‑World Scenarios

• Automated Scheduling: An AI assistant can propose meeting slots, create a Zoom link, and send invites—all through a single tool call.
• Dynamic Updates: Meetings that shift due to rescheduling or agenda changes can be updated on the fly, keeping all participants in sync.
• Clean Up: Periodic cleanup scripts can delete obsolete meetings, freeing up resources and maintaining a tidy calendar.
• Cross‑Platform Workflows: Integrate Zoom management into broader automation pipelines (e.g., combining with calendar APIs, ticketing systems, or project management tools).

Integration into AI Workflows

When configured in the MCP client (Claude or Cursor), developers add a single entry to the section of their configuration file. The server runs as an external process, exposing the four tools over a local HTTP endpoint. AI assistants then reference these tools by name and supply arguments in JSON format, receiving structured responses that can be parsed or displayed directly. This plug‑and‑play model keeps AI logic clean and declarative, while the server handles all OAuth nuances behind the scenes.

Standout Advantages

• Zero‑Code API Wrapping: No need to write custom HTTP clients or handle token refresh logic; the server does it all.
• Type Safety: Zod schemas guarantee that only valid data reaches Zoom, reducing runtime failures.
• Extensibility: The toolset can be expanded with additional Zoom endpoints (e.g., recording management) without altering the client side.
• Open Source & MIT Licensed: Easy to audit, modify, and contribute—perfect for teams that need a trustworthy, maintainable integration.

In summary, the Zoom MCP Server provides developers with a ready‑made, standards‑compliant bridge between AI assistants and the Zoom platform, streamlining meeting management workflows while keeping codebases simple and resilient.
