How to Setup

In Fedora one can setup zoom using either of the following options

Download the RPM

If you’re using Fedora Workstation Edition, you can install Zoom using the GNOME application center. Note that this option doesn’t automatically update Zoom when a new version is released.

  • Download the RPM installer file at our Download Center.

  • Open the download location using a file manager.

  • Double click the RPM installer file to open it in the GNOME application center.

  • Click Install.

  • Enter your admin password and continue the installation when prompted.

Install the Zoom DNF repo

Download and import the Zoom DNF repo, and import the GPG key. Enter your admin password when prompted by sudo:

sudo curl --location https://repo.zoom.us/repo/rpm/zoom_release.repo --output /etc/yum.repos.d/zoom_release.repo
sudo rpmkeys --import https://zoom.us/linux/download/pubkey?version=6-3-10

Then install Zoom itself:

sudo dnf install zoom
