Zoom Meeting SDK for macOS (vendored)

Per Zoom’s documentation, the Meeting SDK for macOS does not run in the App Sandbox. This project has sandboxing disabled when you use the embedded SDK path.

Download

1. Sign in to the Zoom App Marketplace.
2. Create or open a General app → Embed → enable Meeting SDK.
3. Download the macOS package.

4. From the unzipped SampleApp/ZoomSDK folder, copy into this directory (Vendor/ZoomSDK/):

   • ZoomSDK.framework
   • libcrypto.dylib, libjson.dylib, libminizip.dylib, Libssl.dylib, libcares.dylib, libzoombase_crypto_shared.dylib (names must match Zoom’s package; casing may vary—mirror the sample app’s Link Binary With Libraries list).

5. From the package Plugin (or Plugins) folder, add ZoomAudioDevice.driver via Xcode Build Phases → Copy Files (Destination: PlugIns), as described in Zoom’s integrate guide.

Link the framework

1. Open Config/Base.xcconfig.
2. Set:

ZOOM_SDK_LDFLAGS = -framework ZoomSDK

1. In Xcode: General → Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content — add ZoomSDK.framework with Embed & Sign if not already picked up from search paths (match Zoom’s sample).

2. Other Linker Flags: the xcconfig already adds -ObjC.

Credentials

• Meeting SDK JWT is generated locally from the same OAuth Client ID and Client Secret you already use for Zoom sign-in (ZoomOAuthClientId / ZOOM_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET). Your Marketplace app must have Meeting SDK enabled for that client.
• ZAK (recommended for joining as the signed-in user) uses the in-app OAuth token; add Zoom’s user_zak:read (and/or legacy user:read) scope to your app so GET /users/me/token?type=zak succeeds.

External meetings

Joining meetings outside the developer account may require Zoom app review and ZAK / OBF per Zoom’s policy. If join fails, the app falls back to opening the link in the default browser.
