From the author

Guidance for the bundled Zoom Whiteboard MCP connector. Use for Whiteboard MCP auth, endpoints, ID mapping, and tool workflows such as list_whiteboards and get_a_whiteboard. Prefer this skill when the request is specifically about Whiteboard MCP rather than general Zoom MCP.

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

This skill provides essential documentation for the Zoom Whiteboard MCP server, covering authentication requirements, endpoint configuration, and correct identifier mapping. It details the available tool surface for managing whiteboards programmatically, including listing, retrieving, and creating whiteboards for various use cases like brainstorming or strategy analysis.

What it does

  • Defines authentication requirements using User OAuth and S2S OAuth scopes.
  • Provides endpoint URLs for streamable and SSE transport methods.
  • Explains the correct method for mapping Whiteboard IDs from URL segments.
  • Catalogs available MCP tools for whiteboard creation, retrieval, and metadata updates.
  • Outlines the standard read workflow for discovering and accessing whiteboards.

When to use it

  • When configuring the Zoom Whiteboard MCP connector for an AI agent.
  • When troubleshooting authentication or scope issues with Whiteboard MCP.
  • When needing to identify the correct whiteboard ID from a browser URL.
  • When implementing workflows to list or retrieve whiteboards via MCP tools.

Advantages

  • Provides specific guidance for Whiteboard MCP distinct from general Zoom MCP.
  • Clarifies the distinction between whiteboard IDs and subresource page IDs.
  • Offers clear instructions on required OAuth scopes for read and write operations.

Usage examples

“How do I list my Zoom whiteboards using MCP?”
The agent will guide you to use the list_whiteboards tool with a user OAuth token containing the whiteboard:read:list_whiteboards scope.
“What is the correct whiteboard ID for https://us05whiteboard.zoom.us/wb/db/6iktP8hJT3e5qaCuwFuAGg/p/180968285929472?”
The agent will identify 6iktP8hJT3e5qaCuwFuAGg as the correct whiteboard_id, noting that the /p/ segment should be ignored.

Install

Documentation by Zoom

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.

Reference: references/tools.md

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.
