Step 2 (Optional): Configure an App Protection Policy

App Protection Policies are optional Intune policies that apply app-level controls to help protect organizational data in supported mobile apps. They can enforce requirements such as work credentials or PIN access, restrict data transfer between apps, and help prevent data loss without requiring full device enrollment. Organizations may choose to use these policies when they need additional protection for company data, particularly in bring-your-own-device environments, while others may omit them if their deployment only requires basic app distribution or device-level management. The following steps outline how to configure an app protection policy, but an example is provided at the end of these steps for your convenience.

  1. Navigate to the Appsarrow-up-right menu within Microsoft Endpoint Manager.

  2. Select Protection under the Manage Apps menu.

  3. Click + Create and select your platform (iOS/iPadOS or Android) from the dropdown.

  4. On the Basics page, Name your app protection policy (e.g., Zoom Workplace for Intune - Android/iOS), provide a description, and select Next to continue.

  5. Below, click + Select public apps, choose Zoom for Intune, and click Next.

    Note: In the App Protection Policy public app selector, the app is listed as Zoom for Intune — not Zoom Workplace for Intune.

  6. On the Data protection page, choose the data loss prevention policies for the Zoom Workplace for Intune application and click Next.

Step 3: Configure an App Configuration Policy

App Configuration Policies are optional Intune policies that provide app-specific settings to supported mobile apps, allowing organizations to preconfigure features and behavior without requiring users to manually enter those settings. They are commonly used to deliver company-defined values such as account setup information, feature preferences, or other app-specific options through either the managed device or managed app channel, depending on how the app is deployed and supported. The following steps outline how to configure an app protection policy, but an example is provided at the end of these steps for your convenience.

Additional Considerations

Users can use both Zoom Workplace for Intune and the commercial Zoom Workplace mobile app on the same device

Users that enroll personally-owned devices can install both the managed Zoom Workplace for Intune app and the commercial Zoom Workplace mobile app on the same device. This allows users to have a personal Zoom Workplace app in addition to their company-managed Zoom Workplace application.

Customers that wish to enforce a secure container and prevent data leakage between company-managed applications like Outlook or similar applications are recommended to configure an app protection policy that supports these goals.

Accounts can require Zoom Workplace for Intune authentication from mobile devices for their account

To maintain account security, Zoom accounts can be configured to require users to authenticate through the managed Zoom Workplace for Intune app on mobile devices. Once enabled, Zoom will reject any mobile client authentication requests from the commercial Zoom Workplace mobile app. This does not impact mobile browser authentication, including single sign-on (SSO), and only applies to mobile applications.

To enable this feature, submit a ticketarrow-up-right to Zoom Support from a Zoom admin account requesting to “Restrict the mobile client login type to Zoom Workplace for Intune.”

Accounts can phase users into Zoom Workplace for Intune using group-level sign-in enforcement

By default, enabling Zoom Workplace for Intune does not prevent users from continuing to sign in through the commercial Zoom Workplace mobile app. For accounts that need more control over their rollout, Zoom offers an optional account-level feature that allows administrators to enforce Zoom Workplace for Intune sign-in on a per-group basis. When enabled, a setting becomes available at the User Group level that restricts members of that group to signing in exclusively through the Zoom Workplace for Intune app — users in the group will be unable to authenticate through the commercial Zoom Workplace mobile app. This allows administrators to migrate users to the managed Zoom Workplace for Intune app incrementally, group by group, rather than enforcing the requirement across the entire account at once.

This feature is not enabled by default and must be activated by the Zoom support team. To request access, open a ticketarrow-up-right with Zoom Support and ask to enable the group-specific Intune sign-in enforcement system property for your account.

Accounts can verify user identity against their Microsoft tenant to prevent authentication spoofing and remove one-time passwords

Zoom provides an optional account-level setting that allows administrators to paste their Microsoft Tenant ID directly into their Zoom account. When configured, Zoom validates each user's authentication against that tenant at sign-in to confirm that the identity presented matches a verified record in the organization's Microsoft directory. This verification step also eliminates the current one-time password (OTP) prompt that users would otherwise receive during authentication.

This feature is not enabled by default and requires activation by the Zoom support team before the setting will appear in your account. To request access, open a ticketarrow-up-right with Zoom Support and ask to enable Allow to add Microsoft tenant ID for user verification for your account.

To configure this once enabled, navigate to Account Settings → Security and locate the Verify users using your Microsoft account tenant ID setting.

Troubleshooting

Permissions Error

If users receive an access error when attempting to open Zoom for Intune, this is typically caused by missing admin consent permissions for the Zoom for Intune Azure Gallery application.

To resolve this, complete the following steps:

  1. Construct the admin consent URL below, replacing {tenant-id} with your organization's Azure Tenant ID (available on the Azure Active Directory Overview page), then open it in a browser signed in with an admin account: https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant-id}/adminconsent?client_id=ed58ed1a-51b6-4477-823b-e46f39d73587

    Note: The client_id in this URL references the Zoom for Intune Azure Gallery application. Opening this URL will add the application to your tenant (if not already present) and set its initial permissions: Read and write app management data and Sign in and read user profile.

  2. Navigate to the Azure admin portal (https://portal.azure.comarrow-up-right) and sign in with an account assigned one of the following roles: Global Administrator, Cloud Application Administrator, Application Administrator, or Owner of the service principal.

  3. In the left navigation, go to Enterprise Applications and search for Zoom for Intune. Select the application.

  4. In the application's left menu, select Permissions, then select Grant admin consent for [your organization].

Authentication Error 530021

The Zoom for Intune app may encounter authentication error 530021 because of certain Intune Conditional Access configurations. This happens when admins configure Conditional Access to require both Require approved client app and Require all the selected controls enabled, which blocks Zoom sign-in because only Microsoft applications are included on the approved client app list; updating the Conditional Access policy resolves the issue.

Refer to Zoom’s support center for instructions on Configuring the Conditional Access policy for Zoom for Intunearrow-up-right.
