**Description**  
When adding registrants for a recurring meeting registration\_type 2 (attendees need to register for each occurrence to attend), even though an occurrence\_id is specified in the query params of the endpoint call, the response body contains the start\_time of the LAST meeting in the series, regardless of what occurrence\_id is specified.

**Error**  
Add meeting registrant endpoint returns incorrect start\_time

**Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?**  
JWT

**Which Endpoint/s?**

- [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingregistrantcreate](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingregistrantcreate)
- /meetings/{meetingId}/registrants?occurrence\_ids={occurrence\_id}

**How To Reproduce (If applicable)**  
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a recurring meeting with multiple occurrences.
2. Add a registrant using the add registrant API with the occurrence\_id set to the first occurrence’s id.
3. See response body contains start time for last occurrence, rather than first occurrence.

**Additional context**  
I need this response in my UI. So, as a solution I am extracting the start\_time value from the occurrences list in the meeting data (using the get meeting endpoint), this is an extra step that probably could be avoided.

Hi @armando.borge,

Thanks for reaching out about this, and happy to help take a closer look. In order to do so, I can I kindly ask that you share the meeting and occurrence ID(s) you’re testing with, as well as the API response? You’re welcome to share these directly with us at [developersupport@zoom.us](mailto:developersupport@zoom.us).

Thanks,  
Will
