Mass-deploying with preconfigured settings for macOS

IT Admin may choose to install Zoom with preconfigured settings on the Zoom desktop client for macOS. This installation requires configuring a .plist file and installing it along with the IT Admins Installer for macOS.

Settings can be enforced or set as just the default, which the end-user can still modify after deployment.

The desktop client can be enrolled in and managed through Zoom Device Management, which allows you to centrally control desktop client and mobile app settings in the Zoom web portal. 

Note: The VDI Host Installer is an MSI file type that can use the same switches as the standard client MSI installer. It can be deployed through normal software and device management tools. The VDI Client will respond to the same MSI configuration as the non-VDI client and can be configured accordingly, except for the AutoUpdate switch.

This article covers:

• How to download the admin desktop client installer
• Priority of settings
• How to create and configure the .plist file
  • How to require and recommend default settings
  • Available configuration options
  • Important notes regarding AutoUpdate
  • How to deploy Zoom

Learn to install Zoom with preconfigured settings for Windows devices, Android devices, and iOS devices. You can also use Zoom’s own Device Management platform to centrally configure desktop client and mobile app settings.

Prerequisites for using the IT admin installer

• IT Admin version of the macOS desktop client

How to download the admin desktop client installer

1. Go to the Zoom Download Center
2. Click on Download for IT Admin, and then click the Download button under Zoom Client for Meetings.

Priority of settings

Settings can be configured in multiple places. While some can only be configured by the Zoom Admin or IT Admin, some settings can be configured by the end-user as well. If settings conflict, Zoom will use the following priority:

1. Settings deployed and locked through ZDM
2. Setting deployed via us.zoom.config.plist NOT set under PackageRecommend
3. Web setting locked for the account or group
4. Client setting selected by the user
5. Settings deployed via us.zoom.config.plist set under PackageRecommend
6. Web settings that are not locked

How to create and configure the .plist file

If you want to configure options for the Zoom desktop client on macOS, you need to create a .plist file. If you don't configure the .plist file, Zoom will be deployed with the default configuration.

How to require and recommend default settings

Settings configured through plist are either enforced or set as the default, but allow users to change them within the Zoom desktop client.

• If the plist key is set under PackageRecommend key, the client will install with those settings configured, but users will be able to change those options after deployment.
• If the plist key is set outside of the PackageRecommend key, the client will install with those settings required and unable to be adjusted by users.

For example, if you want to have the Automatically enter full screen when viewing shared content enabled by default, but completely disallow Google or Facebook logins, the plist file would be:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>NoGoogle</key>
<true/>
<key>NoFacebook</key>
<true/>
<key>PackageRecommend</key>
<dict>
<key>zAutoFullScreenWhenViewShare</key>
<true/>
</dict>
</dict>
</plist>

Important notes regarding AutoUpdate

The EnableSilentAutoUpdate or AlwaysCheckLatestVersion options are no longer supported. 

Managing Auto Update on versions between 5.8.6 and 5.10.1 should be done with the ZoomAutoUpdate and SetUpdatingChannel option below. This allows for automatic download and installation of updates, based on Slow and Fast release cadences, to best suit your needs. 

For versions 5.10.3 and higher, refer to the Enterprise Auto Update policies. 

How to deploy Zoom

An example .plist file with settings from above enabled by default can be found here.

Once the .plist file is complete, it will need to be named us.zoom.config.plist. When deploying, as long as this file is in the same folder as the ZoomInstallerIT.pkg, the installation will automatically put the .plist file into the /Library/Preferences folder.

You can also deploy IT packages through JAMF, Intune, AirWatch, or other solutions, and push the .plist through them. The Zoom client will also try to read the us.zoom.config.plist. located in the /Library/Managed Preferences folder.
