Integrate Zoom Webinars with LeadSquared

1. Feature Overview

The Zoom Webinar connector captures the details of your Zoom Webinar registrants and creates them as new leads in your LeadSquared account. Once leads are created, you can leverage LeadSquared’s CRM features to nurture and convert them.

Note: This connector captures all leads that register for a Zoom webinar to your LeadSquared account. It does not capture

  • The list of leads that attend the webinar.
  • Any activities such as registration activities, the duration the lead attended the webinar, etc.

To have the complete working functionality, like capturing attendance details of leads attending the webinar along with other webinar activities, refer to LeadSquared Zoom Connector.

 

2. Prerequisites

  • You must have an active Zoom account, along with the Zoom Webinar license. For more information, contact your Zoom account manager.
  • You must be the Administrator of your LeadSquared and Zoom accounts.
  • In your Zoom account, you must either Enable webhooks or Create a JWT App. To know more, contact your Zoom account representative.
  • This is a paid feature. To enable it, reach out to your account manager, or write to support@leadsquared.com.

 

3. How it Works

3.1 Steps in LeadSquared

To push lead data from Zoom Webinars to LeadSquared, configure the Zoom Webinar connector instance. Once you set it up, a webhook URL is generated. Configure this URL in your Zoom account as a webhook, or by creating a JWT app.

3.2 Steps in Zoom

Complete the following steps in your Zoom account –

  1. Use the webhook URL generated in LeadSquared to Enable webhooks or Create a JWT App. To know more, reach out to your Zoom account representative.
  2. Create and schedule a Zoom Webinar.
    1. When creating the webinar, ensure the Registration setting is enabled. To know how to do this, refer to How to schedule a Zoom webinar with registration.
    2. Once you’re done, click Save.
    3. On the My Webinars screen, scroll down to Registration Settings, and click Edit.
    4. On the Registration pop-up, add Questions (default lead fields) and Custom Questions (custom lead fields) through which you want to capture lead data. To know more, refer to Customizing webinar registration.
  3. Once all of this is completed, you can share the webinar invite.

Once these steps are completed, navigate back to your LeadSquared account, and enable sync for the Zoom Webinar connector instance. This will begin the lead capture process.

4.1 Configure the connector

Once you’ve installed the connector, on the Configure Zoom Webinar pop-up, configure the connector access for the non-Admin users in your account. Only those users for whom access is granted can view and access the connector (under the Apps main menu).

Based on the value entered in the selected boolean field, the user can access the connector (e.g., for the user Sam, if the “Is Employee” boolean user field contains the value “Yes”, then this user can access the connector).
  2. Once you’re done, click Save Details. To continue the configuration, refer to the below sections.
Note: By default, all Admin users will have access to the connector.

Enter the following details –

PropertyDescription
Lead SourceEnter the lead source through which the leads were captured (e.g., Zoom Webinar, email campaign, etc.). This detail is displayed on the Lead Details page, under Lead Source.

Select Time ZoneThe time zone of your Zoom account.
Lead Capture Search By CriteriaTo avoid duplicate leads, you must select one unique lead field (e.g., email Id, mobile number, PAN number, etc.) as the search key. This will be used to identify the leads pushed from Zoom Webinar.

To know more about the type of errors, please refer to Error Notifications.

5.2 Entity Options

Define the sync behavior of the connector when leads are captured.

5.2.1 Lead/Contact Entity

Based on the Lead Capture Search By criteria selected (email Id, phone number, etc.), LeadSquared identifies and captures leads from your Zoom account. Lead capture is enabled by default, and it cannot be disabled.  The following options are available to configure the connector’s Sync Behaviour –

  • Capture (Create and Update existing) Record – Leads that only exist in your Zoom account (but not in your LeadSquared account) will get created in LeadSquared. Leads that exist in both your Zoom and LeadSquared accounts will get updated.
  • Create only new record – Leads that only exist in your Zoom account (but not in your LeadSquared account) will get created in LeadSquared.
  • Update only existing record – Leads that exist in both your Zoom and LeadSquared accounts will get updated in LeadSquared.

5.2.2 Mapping

On the Mapping screen, the Zoom Webinar Question fields (system fields) are mapped by default to the corresponding LeadSquared lead fields. If required, you can change or update the default field mapping.

  • To provide a default value for any field, click  , enter the value under Default Value, and click Google.
    • If Zoom doesn’t send data for any lead field, then the default value will get assigned to that specific field. But if the field already has an existing value, then the default value will be ignored.
  • To disable lead data capture for any field, disable the Zoom slider.
  • You can also mark and update a unique lead field as the search key from this screen, by clicking unique icon.
  • To capture data from a Custom Question Zoom Webinar field, you must create a corresponding custom lead field in LeadSquared. To do this, click the Add Custom button.
    1. Once this field is created, you must map it to the relevant LeadSquared lead field.
    2. After the field is mapped, to save the custom field, click Google.
    3. To delete a custom field, click .

Once you’re done mapping, click Save & Next.

 

5.3 Webhook URL

After you provide basic details and finish field mapping, a custom webhook URL is generated. To automate lead capture, copy this URL and configure it in your Zoom Webinar account (reach out to your account manager from Zoom Webinar).

After you’ve configured the URL, click More Actions, and enable the sync job. This ensures the data will be pushed to LeadSquared using the webhook configured in Zoom Webinar.
