Configuration Profiles for Zoom Rooms
Configuration Profiles allow administrators to create reusable settings templates and apply them to multiple Zoom Rooms at once. These saved templates contain one or more Zoom Rooms settings with your desired values. Once created, you can apply a profile to any number of selected Zoom Rooms. The settings will be applied at the individual room level, just as if you had manually changed them one by one.
Configuration profiles can be applied to any rooms in the room list, regardless of their location. However, if a setting is locked at a higher level in the location hierarchy, the profile will not override it.
Note: Configuration Profiles currently supports a curated subset of Zoom Rooms settings. Not all settings are available for inclusion in a profile at this time.
Requirements for Zoom Rooms Configuration Profiles
- Zoom account with Zoom Rooms licenses
- Owner or admin permissions
How to set up Configuration Profiles
- Sign in to the Zoom admin portal.
- Go to Room Management, then Configuration Profiles.
Note: If you have not yet created any profiles, the Configuration Profiles page will display a welcome
screen with a brief introduction and a Create profile button to help you get started - Click Create profile to start building your first configuration profile.
- General: Enter a profile name and an optional description.
- Select Settings: Browse or search all available Zoom Rooms settings, organized by
category (e.g., Profile, Meeting, Alert). Check the settings you want to include in your
profile. - Preview and Configure: Review the selected settings, adjust their values (turn toggles
on/off, etc.), and edit the profile name or description if needed. Then save the profile.
- Once saved, go to Room Management, then Zoom Rooms, select the rooms you want, and click Apply profile.
How to manage Configuration Profiles
- Sign in to the Zoom admin portal.
- Go to Room Management, then Configuration Profiles.
The Configuration Profiles page provides a centralized view of all your saved profiles. From here, you can:
- Search for profiles by name.
- Edit a profile to update its name, description, or included settings.
- Delete a profile you no longer need.
How to apply a profile to Zoom Rooms
- Navigate to Room Management, then Zoom Rooms.
- Select the rooms you want to configure (using checkboxes in the room list).
- Click the Apply profile button in the toolbar.
- Choose a profile from the dropdown list.
- Confirm the action.
Notes:
- The settings from the profile will be applied to all selected rooms. The operation runs
asynchronously. You can continue working while the changes are being applied. - Applying a profile modifies individual room-level settings. It does not override
settings that are locked at a higher level in the Zoom Rooms Location Hierarchy
How to track application history
- Sign in to the Zoom admin portal.
- Go to Room Management, then Configuration Profiles.
- Click the History tab.
- Click View on any completed task to see per-room details, including:
- Which room and which setting was affected
- Whether the change succeeded or failed
- A human-readable reason for any failures, such as:
- "This setting is not applicable to this room."
- "This setting is locked by admin."
- "This setting has a dependency on other setting."
- "Failed to apply the setting."
- You can filter the task details by room name, setting name, or status (Success / Failed).
