Last week, I was to participate in a "Zoom" meeting for a charity that I'm involved in.  I have the needed software on my rarely-used windows-7 box.  But I could not complete the windows-7 login (some problem with a windows-7 service).  I've since found there is a "Zoom" client for Fedora.  "dnfdragora" does not find anything for it.  But I found a web page that I hope has what I need.  I've downloaded the package ("zoom_x86_64.rpm"), and I've downloaded a "Public Key" ("package-signing-key.pub").  The web site from which I've downloaded these also has a line:
Key fingerprint: [some 40 hex digit number]

I have installed this for several people on Fedora.

(4 questions)
1. Do the 2 files need to be in a specific place to do the install?  If yes, where?

No.

2. Do I need to be "root" to do the install?

Yes.

3. What do I do with the "Key fingerprint"?

It sounds like they are now signing the rpm package.

4. How do I do the install (preferably using "dnf")?

The instructions are at (although they still use yum):
https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/204206269-Linux-Installation

"sudo rpm --import package-signing-key.pub"
That registers the signing key with rpm.

"dnf install zoom_x86_64.rpm"
That installs the package along with any dependencies if necessary.
