Hello lovely people of Glide community, I hope you will have a greet weekend.

Just this week, I was presented with a challenge of creating a Zoom link upon request from a mentor app. The client wanted an option such that when a mentor/mentee clicks a button inside the app and presents information about a Zoom meeting they want to create, they will have a direct link to the Zoom room with submitted details.

So here we are.

What you need.

> **1/Zoom JWT app**
>
> Go to [App Marketplace](https://marketplace.zoom.us/develop/create) and create a JWT app.

Let me know if you need any help to set this up. Thanks for reading.

The question is: what can’t you do? 😉 Impressive again!

Having the chance to work with clients from different industries opens up the ability to be creative. I was a bit stagnated inside my own box in the first few months with Glide because I can only do apps within my own knowledge.

Glad to have the chance to share these things with all you guys, sure it will be helpful for some!

Have a nice weekend yourself.

Maravilha! Você inseriu a sala do Zoom dentro do glide ou link externo?

I created the Zoom link using their documented process, then insert that link to Glide with a “open link” action (it will open in the Zoom app if you have that already in your phone).

Talvez dê para abrir o aplicativo Zoom dentro do seu próprio app glide, através de um código.

A Zoom link would always be an “external” link to Glide. I used this scheme to let users input topic, duration and start time without leaving their Glide app 😉

Hey bro, creative as always since day 1 I joined Glide. Actually I need your help setting it up or at least guidelines if possible.

I’ve created an app for IELTS reading section every day. Students are able to upload a book, paragraphs and can answer them on the app. I was wondering if they need to host a meeting on Zoom to discuss it in details.

Thank you in advance 🙏🏻

Are you willing to use an alternative?

I found this much quicker to set up, just a template column is needed.

> Hey all, There is a Free Open source video conference app in mobile and web that is Jitsi Why I mention Jitsi? In your apps you can create easily special rooms or conference pages with jitsi links. Because in jitsi it is free and you can join a conference directly with a link. For example, Jitsi video conference room tempalate is: [http://meet.jit.si/](http://meet.jit.si/) if you add anything to this link , you can get a conference room slight_smile In your app Bahadir can send a conference request to Peter…
