What you’ll need

  • Required scopes: webinar:write:admin, webinar:read:admin.
  • The Advanced Form Integration plugin installed and activated.

Tasks supported

Register Attendee

Adds the form submitter as a registered attendee on the chosen webinar. They receive the standard Zoom registration confirmation email automatically.

Conditional logic example

Register for the “Premium subscribers” webinar only when the form’s subscription_tier field equals “premium”. Free users get a recording link via email instead.

Troubleshooting

“Webinar requires registration approval”

Zoom Webinar supports manual approval of registrants. If your webinar is set to manual approval, AFI registrations land in pending status. Approve them in Zoom’s webinar dashboard.

Webinar dropdown empty

Server-to-Server OAuth apps can only see webinars hosted by users in the same account. If your webinars are scheduled by a sub-user, make sure the OAuth app’s scopes include account-level webinar read access.
