Zoom MCP Whiteboard

Dedicated guidance for Zoom's Whiteboard MCP server.

Endpoints

TransportURL
Streamable HTTP (recommended)
https://mcp-us.zoom.us/mcp/whiteboard/streamable
SSE (fallback)
https://mcp-us.zoom.us/mcp/whiteboard/sse

Authentication

  • User OAuth with Whiteboard scopes is the verified working path for 
    list_whiteboards
    and 
    get_a_whiteboard
    .
  • S2S OAuth can reach the Whiteboard MCP gateway and complete 
    tools/list
    , but tool execution must be validated separately for your app and Whiteboard scopes.
  • Practical rule: start with user OAuth for Whiteboard MCP unless you have already proven your S2S app can mint and execute with the required Whiteboard scopes.
  • The bundled connector expects the token in 
    ZOOM_WHITEBOARD_MCP_ACCESS_TOKEN
    .

Reference: references/authentication-and-identifiers.md

Required Scopes

Whiteboard MCP read scopes:

  • whiteboard:read:list_whiteboards
  • whiteboard:read:whiteboard

Write-capable Whiteboard metadata advertised by the gateway:

  • whiteboard:write:whiteboard

Whiteboard ID Mapping

For Whiteboard MCP, use the identifier from the URL segment after 

/wb/db/
, not the numeric segment after 
/p/
.

Example:

https://us05whiteboard.zoom.us/wb/db/6iktP8hJT3e5qaCuwFuAGg/p/180968285929472
                                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                                     whiteboard_id            page/subresource id

Available Tools

The current Whiteboard MCP tool surface is:

  • create_a_whiteboard_for_brainstorming
  • list_whiteboards
  • create_a_whiteboard
  • get_a_whiteboard
  • create_a_whiteboard_by_script
  • update_a_whiteboard_metadata
  • create_a_whiteboard_for_meeting_summary
  • create_a_whiteboard_for_strategy_analysis

Some MCP clients namespace server tools in the UI. Treat the raw tool names above as authoritative.

Read Workflow

  1. Use a user OAuth token with the Whiteboard read scopes.
  2. Call 
    list_whiteboards
    to discover accessible whiteboards and confirm the correct 
    whiteboard_id
    .
  3. Call 
    get_a_whiteboard
    with that 
    whiteboard_id
    .
