Just as Tovuti has been built to make virtual learning possible from anywhere, Zoom is the world’s preferred platform for enabling face-to-face global communication. Zoom can be configured to a specific brand within Tovuti and integrated with Virtual Classrooms.
Utilizing Tovuti and Zoom together allows Administrators to take full advantage of both platforms.
As of September 8th, 2023, Zoom is deprecating its JTW tokens authentication process. This causes all Zoom integrations created prior to the LMS 2.67 release to no longer function until re-authenticated with OAuth2.
This article outlines the following concepts:
- Update Legacy Integration to the New OAuth2 Method
- Create a New Zoom Integration
- Connect a Zoom Integration with a Brand
Update Legacy Integration to the New OAuth2 Method
Go to Configuration > click Integrations > click Setup Integration
Any previously created Zoom integrations and their statuses are shown. Statuses include Active, Inactive, or Needs updated.
The “Needs updated” status indicates a Zoom integration that requires reauthentication based on Zoom’s policy or platform updates.
To reauthenticate an existing Zoom integration, follow the steps below.
Click the integration that requires updating.
The previously configured JWT credentials are shown.
Click Authenticate with OAuth to update the authentication.
The Zoom login is opened in the same tab. Log in to Zoom using the account credentials.
Click Allow to authorize the integration and enable Zoom to access the necessary information.
Only Zoom Admin accounts have permission to authenticate applications.
The browser returns to the Tovuti Admin Portal.
Click Save to finalize to finish the authentication update.
Create a New Zoom Integration
In the Zoom integrations list view, click New.
Click Authenticate with OAuth. Authenticate the Zoom integration.
Login and click Allow to authorize the integration and enable Zoom to access the necessary information.
Once the authentication is processed, give the integration a Name and click Save to finalize.
Click Deactivate in the editor to cancel the Zoom integration.
Connect a Zoom Integration with a Brand
The Zoom integration can then be assigned directly to a Brand in the Essentials tab of the Brand editor.
