# Zoom

The `@uppy/zoom` plugin lets users import files from their
[Zoom](https://zoom.com) account.

## When should I use this?

When you want to let users import files from their [Zoom](https://zoom.com)
account.

A [Companion](/docs/companion) instance is required for the Zoom plugin to work.
Companion handles authentication with Zoom, downloads the files, and uploads
them to the destination. This saves the user bandwidth, especially helpful if
they are on a mobile connection.

You can self-host Companion or get a hosted version with any
[Transloadit plan](https://transloadit.com/pricing/).

        import { Uppy, Zoom } from "{{UPPY_JS_URL}}"
        const uppy = new Uppy()
        uppy.use(Zoom, {
          // Options

## Use

Using Zoom requires setup in both Uppy and Companion.

### Use in Uppy

```js {10-13} showLineNumbers
import Uppy from '@uppy/core';
import Dashboard from '@uppy/dashboard';
import Zoom from '@uppy/zoom';

import '@uppy/core/dist/style.min.css';
import '@uppy/dashboard/dist/style.min.css';

new Uppy()
	.use(Dashboard, { inline: true, target: '#dashboard' })
	.use(Zoom, { companionUrl: 'https://your-companion.com' });
```

### Use in Companion

Configure the Zoom key and secret. With the standalone Companion server, specify
environment variables:

```shell
export COMPANION_ZOOM_KEY="Zoom API key"
export COMPANION_ZOOM_SECRET="Zoom API secret"
```

When using the Companion Node.js API, configure these options:

```js
companion.app({
	providerOptions: {
		zoom: {
			key: 'Zoom API key',
			secret: 'Zoom API secret',
		},
	},
});
```

## API

### Options

#### `id`

A unique identifier for this plugin (`string`, default: `'Zoom'`).

#### `title`

Title / name shown in the UI, such as Dashboard tabs (`string`, default:
`'Zoom'`).

#### `target`

DOM element, CSS selector, or plugin to place the drag and drop area into
(`string`, `Element`, `Function`, or `UIPlugin`, default:
[`Dashboard`](/docs/dashboard)).

#### `companionUrl`

URL to a [Companion](/docs/companion) instance (`string`, default: `null`).

#### `companionHeaders`

Custom headers that should be sent along to [Companion](/docs/companion) on
every request (`Object`, default: `{}`).

#### `companionAllowedHosts`

The valid and authorised URL(s) from which OAuth responses should be accepted
(`string` or `RegExp` or `Array`, default: `companionUrl`).

This value can be a `string`, a `RegExp` pattern, or an `Array` of both. This is
useful when you have your [Companion](/docs/companion) running on several hosts.
Otherwise, the default value should do fine.

#### `companionCookiesRule`

This option correlates to the
[RequestCredentials value](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request/credentials)
(`string`, default: `'same-origin'`).

This tells the plugin whether to send cookies to [Companion](/docs/companion).

#### `locale`

```js
export default {
	strings: {
		pluginNameZoom: 'Zoom',
	},
};
```
