Zoom integration guide
Automate My Blog Live Strategist for Zoom — add, use, configure, and remove
1. What the app does
When authorized for your Automate My Blog organization, the Zoom app lets AMB join meetings you host so Live Strategist can:
- Receive meeting lifecycle events (for example meeting started / ended).
- Join as the AMB Strategist participant (visible in Zoom's Participants list / roster).
- Surface mid-call suggestions in the Automate My Blog web dashboard (not an in-meeting Zoom Apps panel) and, when you allow it, speak approved lines in the room.
- Support post-call summaries and related follow-up workflows tied to that session.
At a high level, authorization covers meeting and user scopes needed to join the meeting, obtain join/recording credentials where required, and operate the strategist experience. Exact scopes are shown on Zoom's consent screen when you Connect.
2. Add / install the app
In Automate My Blog (required to link Zoom to your organization)
- Sign in to Automate My Blog and open the organization that should own the Zoom connection.
- Go to Connected Sources → Zoom (left sidebar → Connected Sources → Zoom).
- Click Connect Zoom and complete Zoom's OAuth consent.
- Return to the Zoom page and confirm status shows Connected (and bot-related health checks look healthy).
From Zoom Marketplace. Choosing Add / Authorize on the Marketplace listing also completes Zoom OAuth and lands on a success page. To attach that Zoom account to an Automate My Blog organization, still sign in and use
Connect Zoom under
Connected Sources → Zoom.
Zoom account notes. While the Marketplace app is unpublished, only Zoom users on the same Zoom account as the app (or users added as authorized testers via a publishable URL) can successfully authorize. After publication, eligible Zoom users can install according to Zoom's distribution settings.
3. Use the integration
- Start (or host) a Zoom meeting as the Zoom user that authorized the app for your organization. Guest-only joins do not launch the bot.
- In the Zoom meeting client, open Participants and wait for AMB Strategist to appear in the roster (typically within about 30 seconds). If Zoom shows a recording permission prompt, approve it once.
- In Automate My Blog, open Live Strategist either from Connected Sources → Zoom → Open Live Strategist, or go directly to /dashboard/live-strategist (organization admin required). Live Strategist is a web dashboard page — it is not a Settings tab and not an in-meeting Zoom Apps panel.
- Confirm the live session appears, then optionally save 1–2 call goals and approve / Speak useful suggestions (or enable auto goals / auto speak modes you are comfortable with).
- When the meeting ends, post-call workflows may process the session according to your plan and settings.
4. Configure after authorization
- View connection and live-call health.
- Reconnect if Zoom scopes change or the connection looks stale.
- Open Live Strategist during an active call for transcript, coaching, and voice controls.
5. Remove / disconnect the app
From Automate My Blog: open
Connected Sources → Zoom and choose
Disconnect. This clears the organization's stored Zoom connection so AMB no longer auto-launches for that org's meetings.
From Zoom: open Zoom Marketplace → Manage → Installed Apps (or Apps on account), find Automate My Blog / Live Strategist, and remove or revoke access. After removal, reconnect in AMB if you want to use the integration again.
6. Support and privacy
