Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for Zoom

To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Zoom, perform the following steps:

  1. Configure Microsoft Entra SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
    1. Create a Microsoft Entra test user - to test Microsoft Entra single sign-on with B.Simon.
    2. Assign the Microsoft Entra test user - to enable B.Simon to use Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
  2. Configure Zoom SSO - to configure the Single Sign-On settings on application side.
    1. Create Zoom test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Zoom that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
  3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.
