Zoom / Dropbox: Set Zoom to Store Recordings in Dropbox.


Please Note: Dropbox storage isn't limited to video and covers all stored files. Dropbox offers large amounts of data storage for faculty and staff and 5TB for students. 

Setting up the connection between Zoom and Dropbox

  1. Sign in to Dropbox. If you have yet to enroll in Lehigh Dropbox, be sure to visit: https://lts.lehigh.edu/services/dropbox first. Make sure you log in using your Lehigh credentials by entering your Lehigh email address (do not use an alias) so Dropbox can detect you are affiliated with Lehigh. (You will see the "single-sign-on enabled" message appear) 



  2. Click your profile icon at the top-right of the screen, then click Settings.
  3. Click the Connected apps tab.
  4. Next to Zoom, click Connect to Zoom and follow the prompts to complete the connection.


    If you do not see Zoom as an option here, please follow the steps below:
    1. Click the link to access App Center.

    4. At the Zoom sign-in prompt, click the Sing in with SSO option.
    5. Enter "lehigh" in the Zoom domain field. Then click Continue.
    6. You will then be prompted to confirm the permissions Dropbox needs in order to properly interact with your Lehigh Zoom account. These permissions have already been pre-approved by Lehigh's Zoom and Dropbox administrators. Simple click Authorize to continue.
    7. You will next be prompted to enable copying of Zoom cloud recordings to your Lehigh Dropbox account. Click Enable.
