Managing SDK app access for meetings and webinars

Account owners and admins can manage which Zoom Software Development Kit (SDK) applications are allowed to join their organization's meetings and webinars as a participant. They can configure either an allow list or a block list for SDK apps that may join meetings and webinars. Admins can select multiple SDK apps from the Zoom Marketplace to create a customized allow or block list. Customers who previously requested backend blocking of SDK apps will have those block listed apps automatically migrated to the new feature with no change in behavior. This feature helps administrators to control unauthorized SDK apps from joining and accessing meeting content.
