# Zoom Alfred Workflow

## TL;DR

Directly join [**Zoom**](https://www.zoom.us) meetings scheduled in **Google Calendar** via [**Alfred App**](https://www.alfredapp.com) *WITHOUT* having to go through a browser redirect.

![Screenshot](images/screenshot.png)

The workflow lists all meetings in the next 48 hours with a zoom link in a Google Calendar event. The Zoom link is detected in these 3 event fields:

* the location field,

* the main calendar event text, or

* the zoom conferencing entry, created via the Zoom addon for Google Calendar.

Zoom links with a name rather than a zoom room number are currently not supported.

## What do I need?

1. Zoom app

1. Alfred + Powerpack

1. Google Account

## Installation and Setup

Download and install the workflow (either [build from source](https://github.com/gseitz/zoom-alfred-workflow#how-to-build) or from the [releases page](https://github.com/gseitz/zoom-alfred-workflow/releases) on github)

### Client Credentials

1. Create a new project in the [Google Developer Console](https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials)

1. Create new *OAuth Client ID* credentials for the project with application type *Other*.

1. Download the credentials file

    ![Download](images/download_credentials.png)

1. Copy the credentials file to `~/.zoom-alfred-workflow/client_secret.json`

### OAuth

1. Invoke the Alfred workflow with `zm` and open the Google Authentication Page by actioning the first entry: ![Open Google Authentication](images/open_google_auth.png)

1. Copy the verification code

1. Invoke the workflow again and action the second entry `2. Enter Verification Code`: ![Enter Verification Code](images/enter_code.png)

1. Paste the verification code in the Alfred prompt after `zm code `: ![Paste Code](images/paste_code.png)

1. The final OAuth tokens will be saved at `~/.zoom-alfred-workflow/tokens`: ![Tokens saved](images/tokens_saved.png)

1. Contratulations. You can now join your meetings without having to close annoying redirect-pages in the browser!
