Zoom Integration Guide

The Purple Sector Zoom integration lets approved coaches connect their Zoom account so meeting links are created automatically when a student books a sim or live coaching session.

Only coaches can authorize the integration. Students join sessions through links provided in their booking confirmation and their dedicated My Coaching page.

1. Sign in to The Purple Sector with a coach account.
2. Open your Profile page: click your avatar icon (top right) → Profile, or go directly to /dashboard/profile.
3. On the Profile page, ensure the Profile tab is selected (not Following, Followers, or Requests).
4. Scroll down past your Bio, Coach settings, Session pricing, and Video review pricing (pro driver coaches only) until you see the card labeled Zoom with the heading Meeting automation. Sim coaches: scroll past Session pricing and Stripe Connect instead of Video review pricing.
5. Click the purple Connect Zoom button.
6. Complete the Zoom authorization flow in the popup window (allow popups).
7. When successful, your profile shows a green Zoom connected badge.

If you already see the green Zoom connected badge, your account is successfully linked and you can skip the authorization steps above.

Please note: The Availability hours section located below is exclusively for managing your calendar slots. To connect your Zoom account, you must use the Connect Zoom button inside the Meeting automation card above.

If the popup is blocked, allow popups for this site and try again.

After Zoom is connected, you do not need to create meetings manually. When a student books and pays for a sim or live coaching session, the platform automatically generates a unique Zoom meeting link for that booking.

• OAuth Popup not appearing: Ensure your browser allows popups for www.thepurplesector.com.
• Connection Failed: If you see an error during connection, try logging out of Zoom in your browser and clicking Connect Zoom again.
• Meeting Link Missing: Meeting links are only generated if the Coach has an active Zoom connection at the time of booking. If a link is missing, please contact support.
• Expired Token: If meetings stop being created, remove the app from Zoom Account → Marketplace → Manage → Added Apps, then reconnect using Connect Zoom on your Profile page.

For any other issues, please visit our Support Page or contact us at info@thepurplesector.com.

There is no coach-facing Disconnect button at this time. To remove the integration, revoke access from your Zoom account:

1. Sign in to your Zoom account.
2. Open the Zoom App Marketplace.
3. Go to Manage → Added Apps.
4. Find The Purple Sector and select Remove.

After you remove the app, new bookings will not receive automatically generated Zoom links until you connect again.

To request manual deletion of Zoom OAuth tokens from our database, please contact info@thepurplesector.com. Requests are processed within 30 days.

When you authorize Zoom, we store OAuth tokens and your Zoom user ID on your coach profile to create meetings on your behalf. We do not store your Zoom password.

Previously created meeting links on past booking records may be retained for support and dispute resolution as described in Privacy Policy Section 5. For disconnect steps and token deletion requests, see Removing the app above.
