Before You Begin

  • Administrative access to create a Zoom app (or assistance from your IT team)
  • Meeting recordings stored in Zoom's cloud (local recordings are not accessible)
tip

If you're not sure whether you have cloud recording enabled, check with your Zoom administrator or look for the "Cloud" option when you start recording a meeting.


Step 1: Creating Your Zoom App

The first step is to create a Zoom app that will allow TurboDocx to access your meeting transcripts. Don't worry - this is a one-time setup process that we'll walk you through step by step.

  1. Open your web browser and go to https://marketplace.zoom.us

  1. Click "Sign In" in the top right corner

Zoom Marketplace Sign In


  1. Sign in with your Zoom account credentials


  2. You'll be taken to https://marketplace.zoom.us/user/build


Create a New App

  1. In the top right corner, click the dropdown that says "Develop"

  2. Select "Build App" from the dropdown

Step 2: Build App selection


  1. In the dialog that appears, select "General App"

Step 3: General App selection


  1. Click "Create"
  2. Rename your app to "TurboDocx"

Step 4: Rename app to TurboDocx


Why General App?

We use a "General App" because it provides the specific permissions needed to access your cloud recordings safely and securely.


Configure Basic Information

After creating your app, you'll be taken to the app configuration page. Let's set up the basic information first.


Basic Information Tab

  1. Make sure you're on the "Basic Information" tab
  2. Leave app as User Managed - Ensure the app type remains set as "User Managed"

Basic Information User Managed


  1. Scroll down to "App Credentials" section
  2. Note down the Client ID and Client Secret - You'll need these values when configuring TurboDocx

App Credentials Section

Keep Your Credentials Safe

Your Client Secret is like a password - never share it publicly or include it in emails. TurboDocx will store it securely once you enter it.


OAuth Information

  1. Still on the Basic Information tab, scroll down to "OAuth Information"
  2. For "Redirect URL for OAuth", enter:
https://api.turbodocx.com/oauth/zoom/callback
  1. Under "OAuth Allow List", add the following URLs (click "Add" for each one):
https://app.turbodocx.com

OAuth Allow List Configuration


Configure Scopes

Now we need to set up the permissions (scopes) that allow TurboDocx to access your cloud recordings.


Scopes Tab

  1. In the left bar, click on the "Scopes" button and navigate to the add scopes page

Navigate to Scopes Section


  1. Click "Add Scopes" button

Click Add Scopes Button


  1. In the search dialog that appears, search for:
List all cloud recordings for a user

Or look for the scope with this value:

cloud_recording:read:list_user_recordings

Type List Cloud Recordings For User


  1. Add the scope labeled "View your recordings" (with value cloud_recording:read:list_user_recordings)

Select Scope and Press Done


  1. Click "Done" to save the configuration

Step 2: Configuring TurboDocx
