NextPlane Open Hub App for Zoom and Microsoft Teams Presence Integration


The NextPlane Open Hub App integrates Zoom status with Microsoft Teams and shows your Zoom availability to your Teams colleagues.

With the NextPlane Open Hub App, your Teams colleagues will stay updated on your Zoom presence status. For example, if you are in a Zoom video conference, without the NextPlane Open Hub App Microsoft Teams shows your presence status as Available. However, using the NextPlane Open Hub App, your Teams colleagues will see you as In a meeting.

More so, with the NextPlane Open Hub App, Teams contacts will be able to view your profile and status information.

To get started with the NextPlane Open Hub App, sign in to your Zoom account and install the App from Zoom App Marketplace. This will allow NextPlane to connect to your Zoom status information.

To use the NextPlane Open Hub App, you need to have active Zoom and Microsoft Teams accounts.
