Bulk deploying Meeting Connector module services

While administrators can deploy Zoom Node services for the Meeting Connector module individually, they can also bulk-deploy the Meeting Connector and Recording Connector services, allowing admins the ability to instantiate new Zoom Node services across your organization. Bulk deployment streamlines rollout by enabling the rapid distribution of preconfigured services that are ready for immediate use, reducing administrative effort.

Requirements for bulk deploying services for the Meeting Connector module

Basic requirements:

• Business, Education, or Enterprise account
• Zoom Node subscription
• Account owner or admin privilege
• Deployed Node server based on the Meeting Connector system requirements

Service-specific requirements:

• Deploying a Multimedia Router (MMR) service instance
  • A Zoom Node Meetings Connector license

Note: Deploying the Zone Controller service does not require a Zoom Meetings Connector license.
