Configuring Zoom Revenue Accelerator with a CRM
The account admin must integrate their Customer Relationship Management (CRM) account with Zoom so that Zoom can sync deal progress with Zoom Revenue Accelerator and provide additional analytics.
Customers can match conversations to a lead if conversations do not have an open opportunity and account to match. With the current mapping logic, users have the flexibility to check the CRM for opportunity matches based on a timeline, allowing them to review potential matches even after the meeting has concluded, rather than restricting it to immediately after the meeting.
Requirements for configuring Zoom Revenue Accelerator with a CRM
How to integrate with Salesforce
Once a conversation occurs, Zoom Revenue Accelerator immediately matches and syncs with the CRM record to provide context to conversations. The initial CRM connection immediately synchronizes CRM data (synchronization may take time for large datasets) and subsequently synchronizes data every 4 hours.
- Sign in to the Zoom web portal as an admin with the privilege to edit account settings.
- In the navigation menu, click Account Management then Account Settings.
- Click the Revenue Accelerator tab.
- Under Integrations, locate the CRM Integration setting and click Configure.
- Click the Select a CRM dropdown menu and select Salesforce.
- Provide the JWT from your Salesforce account.
- Under Data sync, click the following toggles to enable or disable them:
Note: Account owners and admins can allow deal owners, managers, and other users to update deal data for the sellers on their teams. This permission is configured at the user level within the Zoom for Salesforce Lightning application, where all users must authenticate to gain access. With this feature, managers, deal owners, and other users can change deal data during one-on-one coaching sessions, enabling them to better guide and assist their team members in the sales process.
- Sync team data from Salesforce
- Allow deal owners to update CRM fields on Revenue Accelerator
Note: This setting is only compatible with Zoom for Salesforce Lightning application version 2.17.0 or later.
- Set time alert for users to update the deal next step for open deals
- Under Local time, set the recurring date and time for the alerts for users, then click Save.
- Under the Share conversation analysis with Salesforce:
- Select In a custom object created by the Zoom for Lightning application to allow Zoom Revenue Accelerator to sync the selected activities records with Salesforce as part of the custom Zoom Revenue Accelerator object. This option is only visible if you have installed and configured the Zoom for Salesforce Lightning app, version 2.9.0 or higher. See more details below about the differences between using the Salesforce for Lightning app or not with Zoom Revenue Accelerator.

Note: View more data sync action options. - Click Save.
Once the configuration is successful, you should see a label that CRM is connected and your token expiration date.
Differences between using the JWT connection only and the JWT and Salesforce for Lightning app combined
If admins only configure Zoom Revenue Accelerator through the JWT connection:
- An activity record is created to store the ZRA information for each conversation.
- Admins can control which fields sync over to Salesforce.
- The default Salesforce Open APIs are used.
- The activity is created if an opportunity, account, or lead (in that order of preference) is matched within Salesforce.
If admins configure Zoom Revenue Accelerator through the JWT connection AND install Zoom for Salesforce Lightning, app version 2.9.0 or higher:
- A custom Zoom ZRA Analysis record is created to store the ZRA information for each conversation.
- All ZRA information syncs to Salesforce and cannot be restricted by admins.
- A new Lightning component, zraDetail, is available to pull the Zoom ZRA Analysis record details to linked object page views.
- Custom APIs through the Zoom for Salesforce Lightning package are used.
- The custom ZRA object is created for each conversation, and if an opportunity, account, or lead (in that order of preference) is matched, it will be linked to that within Salesforce.
- This custom object can also be used by admins to generate reports within Salesforce that reference this object.
Use CRM fields management for Salesforce
Zoom Revenue Accelerator (ZRA) admins can configure the fields associated with standard Salesforce opportunity, account, lead, and contact objects in ZRA. The existing standard fields in Salesforce will be automatically selected by default, and admins can conveniently specify Customer Relationship Management (CRM) custom fields for use in various product areas, such as analytics, conversation, and deal filters. ZRA admins can also specify the Salesforce API Name and associated Display Name for custom fields, and easily track the total number of imported fields for each object after making their selections. Additionally, ZRA admins will receive reminders of the product impact when redefining, reconfiguring, or removing a custom field from ZRA, ensuring a streamlined and informed configuration process.
