Hello Mark Topash1, Good day!Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.
Per the description you have share with us, your issue is related to our hybrid team. You can post your issue using this link: Microsoft Exchange Hybrid Management - Microsoft Q&A
So far base on my knowledge you are trying to set up Zoom and you need the EWS URL found in EMC/ECP.
- In the Exchange Admin Center, click servers.
- Click Virtual Directories, then double-click EWS.
3-Click General, and locate the EWS URL.
Once you find the EWS virtual directory, the URL should be displayed there. It typically starts with "https://" and includes the server's name or IP address, followed by "/EWS" or a similar path.
Please note that the exact steps and terminology may differ depending on the version of Exchange you are using. If you're unsure or unable to locate the EWS URL, it may be helpful to consult your organization's IT support or Microsoft's official documentation for your specific Exchange version.
The default URL for EWS is **https:///ews/exchange.asmx(often this may be the same server that OWA is hosted on
If using the above URL with the appropriate domain is not functional, the correct URL can be retrieved in one of 2 ways:
- The Exchange admin can use a PowerShell command on the exchange server
a. Open PowerShell on the Exchange server
b. Type Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory |Select name, *url* | fl
c. The URL will be provided

While this is very thorough, I am still unable to get any further than where I have been. My options are not like what everyone keeps telling me I should have. The EWS URL is nowhere in sight and that seems to be the biggest issue and I do not see a way around it.

Hi guys, I need the Zoom client to be able to contact my Outlook calendar to show me upcoming meetings, whether they are zoom meetings or not.
There is a setting in the Zoom web portal Sign In | Zoom that the users can set this up called “Calendar and Contact Integration” where they enter their mailbox credentials and the Exchange EWS URL and the Zoom client can read the Outlook calendar and show upcoming meetings. This works great if the users does it themselves but I want to do this for the users using a service account with app-level impersonation.
I have access to the Zoom Admin Dashboard and I can do this on the top level like this:
What I do not know how to do is create a service account that can impersonate and read all the user’s calendars.
I’m reading this: Impersonation and EWS in Exchange | Microsoft Learn
And this: Configure impersonation | Microsoft Learn
But I can’t figure it out. I basically need to create an Exchange service account that can read all user’s calendars. One that has the app-level impersonation to red calendars.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thank you.

The exact instructions are found at those links. At what point are you getting stuck?
Also - there is no “app-level impersonation to read calendars.” You’re granting the service account the “application impersonation” role - you’re allowing the service account to BE the user - there is no scoping it to just certain folders after that (aside from restricting the actual user). You can set this to read or read/write access, and you can scope it to a subset of users, but you can’t scope write access to just the calendar folder.
If you’re not comfortable with this method - there is always the more “admin-friendly” method of just granting read access to everybody’s calendar. This access can be scoped to just the calendars.
