Zoom Phone
Zoom Phone is the cloud PBX / UCaaS voice product of Zoom Communications, headquartered in San Jose, California, and sold worldwide from its United States home market. It replaces on-premise telephony with a cloud calling service — extensions, auto receptionists, IVR, call queues, shared line groups, voicemail, call recording, fax, emergency (E911) addressing, and SMS/MMS — delivered either on Zoom-provided PSTN service, on a customer's own carrier through BYOC and Cloud Peering (Provider Exchange), or resold through carrier partners. In the telecom value chain Zoom Phone sits above the network as a UCaaS application layer that buys wholesale connectivity and number inventory from carriers rather than operating a mobile network, and its API posture reflects the software half of that split rather than the carrier half: the Zoom Phone API is fully self-serve, published as downloadable OpenAPI 3.0 with 391 documented operations across 46 resource groups, a 71-event webhook catalog, a separate Number Management API covering number allocation, BYOC numbers, ported number orders, SIP trunks and 10DLC SMS campaigns, OAuth 2.0 with fine-grained phone:* scopes, a public Postman workspace, and an official Node/TypeScript SDK. It is not a mobile network operator, is not a GSMA Open Gateway signatory, and exposes no CAMARA network APIs — no CAMARA reference was found anywhere in its developer surface.
Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.
API Evangelist profiles Zoom Phone the way a machine reads it — 12 machine-readable artifacts across 3 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Zoom Phone scores 59.8/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 85/100 (agent native). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
How we profile Zoom Phone
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Zoom Phone. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 3
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

MCP Servers 1
Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

MCP SERVERRate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

RATE LIMITSEvent Specifications 1
Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

ASYNCAPISecurity Posture 4
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Scopes 1
OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.
OAuth scopes governing access to this provider's APIs.
Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
