What would happen after a change of the URL of the server? #596

Hi, Let's say that the "Zoom Meeting" plugin is installed on a server with the following url: https://moodle.university.edu And then at some point, the URL of the server would be changed to the following one: https://moodle2022.university.edu And almost at the same time, a new Moodle server would take the https://moodle.university.edu/, and it would also have the "Zoom Meeting" plugin installed on it.

Then, what would happen? Would the "Zoom Meeting" activity in both servers function correctly, or would the change of URLs confuse the activity behavior or data?

It's a scenario that is very hard for me to replicate before it would actually happen, so I wonder if someone who knows the internals of the plugin could shed some light on it, something that would help me and other people who may wonder about that.

Thanks

Hi @tamiboulevard,

This should not be an issue at all. The Zoom Meeting activity queries the Zoom API using Zoom's identifiers that are independent of which Moodle server is being used. The plugin does not use the Moodle URL at any point to process data or provide uniqueness.
