Zoom
Difficulty: ReviewedYour own Zoom account can connect within an hour of creating a General app in the Zoom App Marketplace. Before users outside your account can connect, the app has to pass Zoom's Marketplace review, which covers functionality, compliance and security. Forum reports put that at 2 to 12 weeks.

Why reviewed
- Tier
- An unpublished app can only be installed by your own Zoom account, plus a small approved beta group. Publishing it, even as unlisted, requires Zoom's functional and security review.
- Using Composio?
- Composio has a managed Zoom OAuth app, so you can prototype without passing Zoom's review yourself. Before launch, register and publish your own app so your name appears on the consent screen.ZOOM

Scopes
1
Zoom uses granular scopes, such as meeting:read and user:read variants, and doesn't publish sensitivity tiers. Every requested scope needs a written justification and test instructions, and the security review may remove any scope your app doesn't clearly use.
Any scope your app requestsbasicAccess to the Zoom product data that scope covers. Checked during the Marketplace security review. Unused or redundant scopes get denied.
When you get stuck
3
Users outside your Zoom account can't install the app
Unpublished (private) apps can only be installed by members of your own account.
FixGet Zoom's approval for beta sharing, or publish the app through review.
Review is rejected for metadata or URLs
Docs are hosted on Google Drive, the support page or removal instructions are missing, or the listing is incomplete.
FixHost every page on your own domain and follow the rejection checklist.
Rejection asks for supporting evidence for the technical design
The security attestation didn't include documentation such as SSDLC or SAST/DAST results.
FixAttach your security policy and testing evidence when you submit.

How many outside users can a beta app have?
The docs only say 'a limited number'.
ResolveAsk Zoom when you request beta sharing, or ask on devforum.zoom.us.
Current typical review time
Forum estimates range from 2 to 4 weeks to 4 to 12 weeks, and Zoom publishes no official SLA.
ResolveAsk on devforum.zoom.us or ask your Zoom partner contact.
