In this paper we present the CMZoom Survey's catalog of compact sources (<10'', ~0.4pc) within the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ). CMZoom is aSubmillimeter Array (SMA) large program designed to provide a complete andunbiased map of all high column density gas (N(H$_2$) $\geq$ 10$^{23}$cm$^{-2}$) of the innermost 500pc of the Galaxy in the 1.3mm dust continuum. Wegenerate both a robust catalog designed to reduce spurious source detections,and a second catalog with higher completeness, both generated using a pruneddendrogram. In the robust catalog, we report 285 compact sources, or 816 in thehigh completeness catalog. These sources have effective radii between 0.04-0.4pc, and are the potential progenitors of star clusters. The masses for bothcatalogs are dominated by the Sagittarius B2 cloud complex, where masses arelikely unreliable due to free-free contamination, uncertain dust temperatures,and line-of-sight confusion. Given the survey selection and completeness, wepredict that our robust catalog accounts for more than ~99% of compactsubstructure capable of forming high mass stars in the CMZ. This catalogprovides a crucial foundation for future studies of high-mass star formation inthe Milky Way's Galactic Center.
