Zoom Notetaker integration
Updated November 3, 2026
On this page
This guide is for Coaching & AI users who want Demodesk to automatically record and transcribe their Zoom meetings. Once set up, Demodesk sends its Notetaker to join your scheduled Zoom calls, records them, and saves the transcript to your dashboard, with no manual clicks needed.
To use a Zoom personal room as a booking location for Demodesk Scheduling instead, see “Zoom for Scheduling”.
Before you start
Make sure your calendar and email are connected to Demodesk. This is what lets Demodesk automatically detect and import your scheduled Zoom meetings.

Connect Zoom
Every teammate connects their own Zoom account. One person connecting Zoom does not cover anyone else, so each person who wants the Notetaker in their Zoom meetings follows these steps.
-
Log in to Demodesk and go to your Connections page.
-
Scroll down to the Video conferencing section.

-
Click Connect next to Zoom.
-
On the authorization screen, click Allow to grant Demodesk access to your Zoom account.
-
That’s it! Your Zoom account is now connected ✅
How it works
Once your calendar and Zoom are connected, Demodesk handles the rest:
- It detects any calendar event with a valid Zoom link in the location field.
- The Notetaker automatically joins the meeting at its start time.
- The meeting is recorded and transcribed, and saved to your Demodesk dashboard.
You can also add a Zoom meeting manually by copying the invite link and pasting it into Demodesk.


That’s it! 🎉 The Notetaker joins at the start time, and the recording is transcribed and saved to your Demodesk dashboard automatically.
View and share your recordings
After the meeting ends, the recording and full transcript are saved to your Demodesk dashboard. You can review them, share them with teammates, or use them to prepare follow-ups and reports.

Disconnect Zoom
-
Log in to Demodesk and go to your Connections page.
-
Scroll down to the Video conferencing section and click Disconnect.

FAQs
That screen comes from Zoom, not from Demodesk. Some Zoom accounts only let their members use apps that a Zoom admin has approved first. A Zoom admin can approve an app for their own use, which is why an admin can connect Zoom while the rest of the team still sees the message.
Your Zoom admin can pre-approve Demodesk in Zoom:
- Sign in to the Zoom App Marketplace at marketplace.zoom.us with a Zoom admin account.
- Search for Demodesk.
- Turn on pre-approval for the whole Zoom account or for the groups that need it.
These menu names belong to Zoom and may look slightly different in your Zoom account.
After that, each person goes back to Settings, then Integrations, then Connections in Demodesk, scrolls to the Video conferencing section and clicks Connect next to Zoom again.
If someone signs in with a Zoom account that belongs to a different organization, the Zoom admin of that organization has to pre-approve Demodesk as well.
One more case to rule out: if Connect is greyed out in Demodesk with the hint Disabled by your company admin, Zoom is blocked in your Demodesk company settings. A Demodesk admin can allow it again under Integration access, see “Integrations health check”.
Currently, Demodesk works best with desktop Zoom meetings that are scheduled through a connected calendar. Mobile Zoom meeting recordings are not supported yet.
Yes! Once your calendar is connected, Demodesk will automatically detect your Zoom meetings, join the call, and start recording and transcribing — without any manual action.
Absolutely! Every Zoom meeting that Demodesk joins will be automatically transcribed and saved in your Demodesk account.
