We don't know how cooked your items are after the par boil. It also depends on the size of the items. So, we can't be very precise here. I would use high heat (400F or higher) because you probably want some color before the items overcook. As soon as they have some color, test for done-ness. Zucchini cooks much faster than the other items, so you might add that when the other items are almost complete.

    It might even be worth putting them under the broiler to get the color on the outside without cooking the middle too much more

I would not par boil zucchini, they will be over cooked and mushy

par boil just enough that the vegetables are starting to be tender; stick a for in them.

Remove from the water and make sure you drain them completely, or as close to. Put them on a sheet pan and less the steam steam away.

Toss with olive oil and seasoning and put in an high temperature oven (400F+)

The high temperature is kinda required to remove as much humidity as quickly as possible so the vegetables can get some colors.

You have to keep an eye on them.
