To receive real-time Zoom events over WebSockets, you establish a persistent, authenticated connection using Server-to-Server OAuth, subscribe to specific event endpoints, and maintain the channel with keep-alive pings.

How does Zoom WebSocket subscription handle token management and authentication?▼

Zoom WebSocket subscription handles authentication using Server-to-Server OAuth, automatically refreshing tokens to maintain a persistent connection without manual re-authentication interruptions.

What is the best way to manage WebSocket reconnection for Zoom real-time events?▼

The best way to manage WebSocket reconnection for Zoom events is using exponential backoff combined with keep-alive heartbeats, ensuring reliable recovery and single-connection enforcement per subscription.

Do I need a Server-to-Server OAuth app to subscribe to Zoom WebSocket events?▼

Yes, you need a Server-to-Server OAuth app to authenticate your WebSocket connection, create your event subscription, and securely stream real-time meeting and user updates from Zoom.

Why use Zoom WebSockets for real-time meeting updates instead of webhooks?▼

Use Zoom WebSockets for real-time meeting updates to achieve low-latency event delivery, avoiding the processing overhead and delays inherent in traditional webhook HTTP requests.

Can I enforce a single WebSocket connection per Zoom event subscription?▼

Yes, the connection implementation includes a single-connection guard per subscription, ensuring only one active WebSocket stream operates for each configured Zoom event subscription.
