Zoom MCP server

The Zoom MCP Server is a tool that enables AI-assisted interaction with Zoom meetings. Using this server, you can list, create, retrieve details, and delete Zoom meetings through simple natural language commands.

Installation and Setup

Prerequisites

Before using the Zoom MCP Server, you need to obtain credentials from the Zoom Marketplace:

1. Visit Zoom Marketplace
2. Build a new App by selecting Server to Server OAuth App
3. Add Scope > Meeting > Select All Meeting Permissions
4. Activate your app
5. Obtain your Account ID, Client ID, and Client Secret from the App Credentials page

Setting Up the MCP Server

Configure the MCP server by creating a configuration file with your Zoom credentials:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zoom-mcp-server": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@yitianyigexiangfa/zoom-mcp-server@latest"],
      "env": {
        "ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID": "your-zoom-account-id",
        "ZOOM_CLIENT_ID": "your-zoom-client-id",
        "ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-zoom-client-secret"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace the placeholder values with your actual Zoom credentials.

Using the Zoom MCP Server

Once configured, you can interact with Zoom meetings using natural language commands.

Listing Meetings

To view your meetings, use commands like:

• list my meetings
• list my upcoming meetings

Creating Meetings

To schedule a new meeting:

• Schedule a meeting at today 3 pm with a introduce mcp topic

This command creates a meeting at the specified time with the provided topic.

Deleting Meetings

You can delete meetings using:

• delete the latest meeting
• delete the 86226580854 meeting

The second example deletes a specific meeting by its ID.

Retrieving Meeting Details

To get information about a specific meeting:

• Retrieve the latest meeting's details
• Retrieve 86226580854 meeting's details

These commands will return details about either your most recent meeting or a specific meeting identified by its ID.

VS Code Integration

The Zoom MCP Server can be installed and used within VS Code for a seamless experience. This allows you to manage your Zoom meetings directly from your development environment.

How to install this MCP server

For Claude Code

To add this MCP server to Claude Code, run this command in your terminal:

claude mcp add-json "zoom-mcp-server" '{"command":"npx","args":["/PATH/TO/zoom-mcp-server"],"env":{"ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID":"${ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID}","ZOOM_CLIENT_ID":"${ZOOM_CLIENT_ID}","ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET":"${ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET}"}}'

See the official Claude Code MCP documentation for more details.

For Cursor

There are two ways to add an MCP server to Cursor. The most common way is to add the server globally in the ~/.cursor/mcp.json file so that it is available in all of your projects.

If you only need the server in a single project, you can add it to the project instead by creating or adding it to the .cursor/mcp.json file.

Adding an MCP server to Cursor globally

To add a global MCP server go to Cursor Settings > Tools & Integrations and click "New MCP Server".

When you click that button the ~/.cursor/mcp.json file will be opened and you can add your server like this:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "zoom-mcp-server": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "/PATH/TO/zoom-mcp-server"
            ],
            "env": {
                "ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID": "${ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID}",
                "ZOOM_CLIENT_ID": "${ZOOM_CLIENT_ID}",
                "ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET": "${ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET}"
            }
        }
    }
}

Adding an MCP server to a project

To add an MCP server to a project you can create a new .cursor/mcp.json file or add it to the existing one. This will look exactly the same as the global MCP server example above.

How to use the MCP server

Once the server is installed, you might need to head back to Settings > MCP and click the refresh button.

The Cursor agent will then be able to see the available tools the added MCP server has available and will call them when it needs to.

You can also explicitly ask the agent to use the tool by mentioning the tool name and describing what the function does.

For Claude Desktop

To add this MCP server to Claude Desktop:

1. Find your configuration file:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
• Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add this to your configuration file:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "zoom-mcp-server": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "/PATH/TO/zoom-mcp-server"
            ],
            "env": {
                "ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID": "${ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID}",
                "ZOOM_CLIENT_ID": "${ZOOM_CLIENT_ID}",
                "ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET": "${ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET}"
            }
        }
    }
}

3. Restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect
