[Bug]: Zoom Rooms application only offered as 32bit (x86) .exe

Open AScott-WWF opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

What happened?

The Get-EvergreenApp -Name Zoom is only returning the 32bit .exe for the Zoom Rooms app, it does not return the downloads in .msi format or for the x64 .exe Using the URI supplied for the 32 bit .exe I have determined (for the current version - 5.11.3.1634) they are available for the following Architectures and Types via the subsequent URLs: 32bit .msi : https://cdn.zoom.us/prod/5.11.3.1634/zoomrooms-5.11.3.1634-x86.msi 64bit .exe : https://cdn.zoom.us/prod/5.11.3.1634/x64/zoomrooms-5.11.3.1634-x64.exe 64bit .msi : https://cdn.zoom.us/prod/5.11.3.1634/x64/zoomrooms-5.11.3.1634-x64.msi

I also note the Zoom Meetings Installer for x64 is also missing (N.B. Client not Admin / 'Full' version) This I have discoivered, is available here: https://cdn.zoom.us/prod/5.11.11.8425/x64/ZoomInstaller.exe

I am unsure if the Zoom API is not publishing these URLs or if the code that supplies these URLs needs to be updated?

Here's an update pushed to the development branch. What benefit would the ZoomInstaller.exe have that the ZoomInstallerFull.exe won't provide?

Fantastic.

With regards to the ZoomInstaller.exe vs ZoomInstallerFull.exe - IMHO not any benefit for widescale distribution as the ZoomInstallerFull.exe contains a wider set of features usually required for mass deployment, ZoomInstaller.exe appears to be a cut down end / guest users installation.

This Reddit discussion details some of the differences: https://www.reddit.com/r/Zoom/comments/v4dnn5/whats_difference_between_zoominstallerfullexe_and/

ZoomInstaller.exe is the minimum needed to get Zoom meetings working and is the default download if you try to join a meeting and don't have Zoom installed. It does not include ringtones and several other features which will be installed on demand.

ZoomInstallerFull.exe includes all files including rintones, airhost, av codecs etc.
