How to load data from Zoom to BigQuery

Learn how to use Airbyte to synchronize your Zoom data into BigQuery within minutes.

Building your pipeline or Using Airbyte

Airbyte is the only open source solution empowering data teams  to meet all their growing custom business demands in the new AI era.

Building in-house pipelines

Bespoke pipelines are:
  • Inconsistent and inaccurate data
  • Laborious and expensive
  • Brittle and inflexible
Furthermore, you will need to build and maintain Y x Z pipelines with Y sources and Z destinations to cover all your needs.

After Airbyte

Airbyte connections are:
  • Reliable and accurate
  • Extensible and scalable for all your needs
  • Deployed and governed your way
All your pipelines in minutes, however custom they are, thanks to Airbyte’s connector marketplace and AI Connector Builder.

How to Sync to Manually

Step 1: Access Zoom API for Data Extraction

To extract data from Zoom, you'll need to use the Zoom API. First, sign up or log in to the Zoom Developer Portal and create a new app. Choose the API Key/Secret option. After creating the app, note down the API Key and Secret. Use these credentials to authenticate and access the data you need, such as meeting details, participants, etc., through various available endpoints like "Get Meeting Details" or "List Meeting Participants".

Step 2: Set Up OAuth for Authentication

Since you'll be accessing potentially sensitive data, it's crucial to set up OAuth for secure authentication. In your Zoom app, enable OAuth and configure the necessary redirect URLs. Obtain an OAuth token by making a request to Zoom's OAuth endpoint. This token will be used to authenticate your API requests to ensure data extraction is secure.

Step 3: Extract Data Using Python Scripts

Write Python scripts to call the Zoom API endpoints using libraries like `requests` to handle HTTP requests. Use the OAuth token to authenticate these requests. Parse the JSON responses to extract the relevant data fields you need for your analysis or reporting purposes.

Step 4: Transform Data into CSV Format

Once you have extracted the data using your Python script, transform it into a CSV format. Use Python libraries like `pandas` to convert JSON data into a structured CSV file. This step is crucial because BigQuery can easily ingest CSV files. Ensure your CSV file is well-structured, with appropriate column headers and data types.

Step 5: Create a Google Cloud Storage Bucket

Before loading your CSV data into BigQuery, upload it to Google Cloud Storage (GCS). First, create a new bucket in GCS via the Google Cloud Console. Choose a unique bucket name and set the appropriate permissions to allow access for your BigQuery service account.

Step 6: Upload CSV to Google Cloud Storage

Use the `gsutil` command-line tool or the Google Cloud Console to upload your CSV file to the bucket you created. Verify that the file is successfully uploaded and accessible. You can use the command `gsutil cp yourfile.csv gs://your-bucket-name/` to perform this task.

Step 7: Load Data from GCS to BigQuery

Finally, load the CSV data from Google Cloud Storage into BigQuery. Use the BigQuery Console or the `bq` command-line tool to create a new dataset and a table to hold your data. Run a load job specifying the source URI (`gs://your-bucket-name/yourfile.csv`), the dataset, and the table name. Ensure you define the schema correctly to match the structure of your CSV file. Once loaded, you can query and analyze your data within BigQuery.

By following these steps, you can transfer data from Zoom to BigQuery effectively without relying on third-party connectors or integrations.
