To get started with automating Discord notifications for new Zoom meetings, you need to access Pabbly Connect. First, create a free account on the Pabbly Connect dashboard, which is user-friendly and straightforward.

Once logged in, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You can name your workflow something like ‘Zoom to Discord’ for easy reference. This is the first step in setting up your automation where Pabbly Connect will facilitate the integration between Zoom and Discord.

2. Configuring Zoom Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this section, you will set up the trigger for new meetings in your Zoom account. In the trigger window of Pabbly Connect, search for ‘Zoom’ and select it. Then, choose the event ‘New Meeting’ to trigger whenever a meeting is created.

• Select ‘Configure Webhooks’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.
• Go to your Zoom account and navigate to the App Marketplace.

After copying the webhook URL, you will need to create a new app in Zoom. This app will send notifications to Pabbly Connect whenever a new meeting is created. Follow the instructions to set up the app, ensuring that you paste the webhook URL in the event notification endpoint.

3. Setting Up Discord Action in Pabbly Connect

After configuring the Zoom trigger, the next step is to set up the action in Discord. In the action window of Pabbly Connect, search for ‘Discord’ and select it. Then, choose the action event ‘Send Channel Message’.

To connect your Discord channel, you need to create a webhook in your Discord server. Navigate to your server settings, select ‘Integrations’, and then click on ‘Webhooks’. Create a new webhook and copy the URL provided. Paste this URL back into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

4. Formatting Meeting Details for Discord Notifications

Once the Discord action is set up, you will need to format the meeting details for the notification. Use the ‘Date Time Formatter’ feature in Pabbly Connect to convert the meeting time from UTC to your local timezone, Asia/Kolkata.

• Select the action event ‘Format Date with Time Zone’.
• Map the meeting start time received from Zoom.
• Choose the desired output format for displaying date and time.

This step is crucial to ensure that the meeting details sent to Discord are clear and accurate. After formatting, you can prepare the message that will be sent to your Discord channel.

5. Testing the Integration Between Zoom and Discord

To ensure that the integration between Zoom and Discord is working correctly, create a new meeting in your Zoom account. After saving the meeting, check your Discord channel to see if a notification appears.

If set up correctly, Pabbly Connect will trigger the Discord notification with the meeting details, including the meeting name, date, time, and duration. This real-time notification helps keep your team informed about upcoming meetings.
