Hello @webextozoom, 

 If you go into your Rooms admin portal and then to your calendar integration page and click edit on the calendar integration that you have with Zoom and the Webex Kit (assuming that you are registering the room or at least provisioning the room through Zoom) then you can go in that setting and turn on (enable) Webex parsing. This will allow Zoom to recognize in the location field of the calendar event that the meeting is a Webex meeting and parse the URL correctly to your Room. 

 Thanks, 

Brandon

Nearly three years since this post and I am having the exact same issue as they described. I do not think the employee that replied understood unfortunately and this is my only lead to get our webex room to be able to join zoom invitations from external sources that do not have a CRC license WITH the one button to push join method as opposed to typing the meeting ID, passcode, and then logging into zoom to enter the code to authenticate our own CRC license

Thanks for the information YaBoiB,

However: Both the video you referenced and the steps assume that the external zoom host has the license for conference rooms (CRC license)

What I am looking for is joining an external zoom meeting if the host does not have the CRC license.

I referenced the zoom documentation that shows the attendant can use their own license. Upon joining we receive the error on screen that the license is required and we can sign in to the link provided, reenter the meeting ID in the link, enter the code, etc. This seemed to be a lot of steps, however I see that you can bypass the pairing code and signing in by setting up the API connector.

I went through another document for getting the API connector provisioned, then I set up our webex room bar as a SIP proxy and from the zoom dashboard it showed connected. When I went to set up the calendar integration(via gsuite), I used a service user that has access to the resource calendar attached to our room bar in webex. However, from the zoom dashboard I do not see where I can associate the resource calendar to the webex device.

Testing with this configuration as it was set up went as follows:

1.) Zoom host sent scheduled invite to a user (zoom host does not have pro or CRC connector)

2.)User shared invite with resource calendar attached to webex device

3.)Zoom meeting appeared on the webex device's calendar, however there was no "one button to push" but zoom branding appeared still so it recognized it as a zoom meeting

4.)Webex device joined meeting via meeting ID and passcode (SIP information was not in meeting invite)

5.)Even though we appeared to have the API connector and SIP proxy for the generic H.323 device in zoom connected, we were still prompted with the error message to sign in, enter meeting ID, pairing code, etc.

Documentations I have tried to follow listed here:

Having the same issue.  This is really poorly documented by Zoom.

I've been dealing with the same exact issue that webextozoom and Kurticus has thoroughly described - VERBATIM! And, for just as long. What the Zoom SME's are failing to answer is: how to use Zoom on a Webex endpoint if the meeting is hosted by an external organizer who does not have a CRC license?

If the answer was as simple as a click of a button in the control hub, this thread wouldn't have a three year long follow-up discussion.

The short answer, that the Zoom SME's are failing to disclose is that, that functionality is contingent on the Zoom meeting's host CRC license and not off any add-on licenses that the participant(s) organization(s) may have - which is kinda nonsense since not all  organizations that use Zoom will have a CRC license since they may not have Webex endpoints themselves. It's also non-sense is, as someone who is from an organization that does have Webex endpoints, as well as Zoom, and has Zoom CRC licenses - only our internal hosted Zoom meetings can be held on our Webex endpoints and not any of our [high-importance] externally hosted Zoom meetings! - making the CRC license useless and a waste of money in that matter.

What Zoom needs to do is copy and/or improve upon what Microsoft is doing with VIMT / CVI - so that "you can join a Microsoft Teams meeting from a Webex kit even without a direct CVI integration on your side, as long as WebRTC is enabled in your Webex Control Hub."

Because the way it currently stands, if you want true interoperability between the vast array of video conferencing platforms (SaaS, IoT, SIP, CVI, etc.), you need to either jump through hoops to Mickey Mouse a solution together or acquire a interoperable video conferencing service such as Pexip. Although Zoom's application is fantastic when it comes to meeting disability accessibility, the fact that is, the aforementioned interoperability complaints that have been expressed proves a design flaw that needs to be addressed to accommodate all users.

Video conference interoperability - what a novel idea:
