Zoom
What Paperbeam reads from Zoom, the read-only access it asks for and why, filters, and the beats it feeds.
Calls & meetings
Read-only OAuth
Cloud recording transcripts of customer meetings, with speakers.
What we read
- Calls with transcripts, participants and speaker roles
Only the reporting window of each edition is read. Paperbeam stores derived facts and short excerpts, not copies of your Zoom data, and keeps raw evidence only for your retention period.
Access we ask for, and why
| Scope | Why |
|---|---|
cloud_recording:read:list_user_recordings | Find recorded meetings in the window |
cloud_recording:read:recording | Download the transcript file of each recording |
user:read:user | Identify whose recordings to read |
All access is read-only. You can revoke it from Zoom at any time, or disconnect the source in Paperbeam.
Connect Zoom
- Go to Sources and choose Zoom.
- Click Continue to Zoom and approve the read-only access in the window that opens.
- The credential is encrypted before it is stored and never shown again. Use Sync now on the source’s page to see what it collects from the last 24 hours, and set filters there.
You need the admin or owner role in Paperbeam, and enough permission in Zoom to grant read access to the data listed above.
Filters
Set on the source’s page at Sources›Zoom. Filtered-out data is never collected.
| Filter | Effect |
|---|---|
| Users | Whose cloud recordings to read (emails). Leave empty for yours (OAuth) or every licensed user (server-to-server app). |
To keep specific people, channels or topics out of the paper across all sources, use exclusion rules and the never-mention list in House style.

Stories land in whichever of your sections fits them best.
