What’s New and What’s Coming for Zoom Marketplace in 2020?
Summary
Zoom announced several updates to its App Marketplace alongside roadmap deadlines scheduled for early 2020. Marketplace enhancements include functional app categories, additional URL fields for Terms of Use and documentation, and support for defining multiple webhook event subscriptions within a single application. Administrators and developers gained webhook logs, enhanced pre-approval permission settings, and the ability to test draft applications directly in the installed apps interface for Data Compliance API compliance. To accommodate surging traffic, Zoom introduced revamped V2 REST API rate limits and breaking behavioral changes to the List Users API. Crucially, the platform set an absolute end-of-life date of April 26, 2020, for all legacy V1 APIs, requiring immediate migration to V2 endpoints.
Context
Rapid growth in Zoom API usage required changes to handle rate limits at scale, while legacy V1 APIs needed to be retired in favor of V2 endpoints.
Approach / What changed
Zoom updated the Marketplace with multiple webhook event subscriptions per app, expanded admin controls, draft app installation for compliance testing, and scheduled breaking changes and rate limit adjustments for the V2 API while deprecating V1.
Takeaways
Developers can configure multiple webhook event subscriptions with distinct events and endpoints inside a single Zoom Marketplace application.
In March 2020, the List Users API stops sorting returned email lists and removes the account owner from the first page of response data.
All Zoom V1 APIs lacking /v2 in their path reach end-of-life on April 26, 2020, requiring developers to migrate to V2 to avoid outages.
