Before You Begin

We recommend performing the installation with a shared service account (e.g., incidents@yourcompany.com) rather than a personal account. This ensures the integration continues working if someone leaves the company. Ensure you are logged in as an Admin in Rootly.

Connect Your Zoom Account

To connect Zoom to Rootly, you will authorize Rootly via OAuth. This grants Rootly the permissions it needs to create and manage meetings on your behalf.
