TIP

Events are triggered on an organizational level. For example, when the trigger is set up to fire on meetings that have ended, a new job is created for every meeting ended by anyone in the connected Zoom organization. Use a meeting's or webinar's tracking fields to filter for events that are relevant. Find out more about how to filter by events by tracking fields here.

# Configuring the Zoom trigger

Configuring the Zoom trigger is simple. After creating a connection, you will be prompted to provide an Event category. This event category helps you filter down events in Zoom based on categories like Webinars, Meetings, or even Users. The following dropdown will show the actual Event itself. Select from the list of events possible and you're good to go!
