Zoom Workplace managed configuration for Android

Zoom publishes a long list of settings that IT can push to its Android app through an MDM. This page covers about thirty of them: enrolling the device, choosing how people sign in, controlling who can join meetings, and limiting features or data leaving the app. Zoom's documentation lists many more, so check it for the full set. Zoom writes most key names with a mandatory: or mandatory:choice: prefix, and this page keeps them exactly as printed.

Questions

Zoom Workplace on managed Android

What is Zoom Workplace's package name on Android?

us.zoom.videomeetings. It is the id in Zoom's own Google Play link. Zoom also ships a separate build for Microsoft Intune, so make sure you add the one that matches your setup.

Why do the key names start with mandatory:?

That is how Zoom writes them in its deployment article. Where an MDM console shows a key field, enter the name as printed there, including the prefix.

What values do the on or off keys take?

Zoom's Android article lists them as true or false. Its Intune guide for app protection policies says to use 1 and 0 instead, so follow the guide that matches how you deploy.

Can I set a company SSO address people cannot change?

Yes. Use mandatory:ForceSSOURL with your company subdomain. mandatory:SetSSOURL only presets the address and leaves it editable.

Manage Zoom Workplace on your fleet

Add the app to a Nomid policy, set its configuration and choose its permissions.
