Given that there is no Zoom chat signature available on FortiGate.

Is it possible to block the Zoom chat without blocking the Zoom meeting?

TIA.

Hello,

I do not think it would be possible without developing a custom signature to identify chat traffic.

Best regards,

As mentioned by @jintrah_FTNT so far there is no ready-to-use AppControl signature for the Zoom except for the whole Zoom as an application, so either wait till Fortinet develop it (or not), or try to develop a custom signature, which would be interesting but I guess time consuming.
