When I want to add registrants to a Zoom webinar, it is pretty straighforward:  
URL: [Error - Zoom](https://zoom.us/webinar/register/)[Webinar ID]  
Method: POST  
Payload: [first\_name=Adam&last\_name=Smith&email=adam.smith@gmail.com](mailto:first_name=Adam&last_name=Smith&email=adam.smith@gmail.com)

Is there a similar way how to do this for meetings?  
I found this guide, but that is a bit more complicated:  
marketplace. zoom. us/ docs/ api-reference/ zoom-api/ meetings/meetingregistrantcreate  
(sorry for spaces in the URL, it didn’t let me post it)

Thanks,

Jan

Hey @Jan1,

The supported way to add meeting registrants programmatically is via this endpoint:

> **[Add meeting registrant - Meetings - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingregistrantcreate)**
>
> Register a participant for a meeting. Note that there is a maximum limit of 4999 registrants per meeting and users will see an error if the capacity has...

Please note that this is the equivalent of the [Add Webinar Registrant](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/webinars/webinarregistrantcreate) API.

Thanks!  
Will

Hi Will,

Thank you for your reply. But the link that you posted is the same one that I mentioned in my original post.  
I assume that there isn’t a simple webhook how to add participants to meetings the same way you can do it with webinars. Just a simple URL (the one that above was changed to Error-Zoom, but the link itself is correct and a simple payload. Right?

Thanks

Hi @Jan1,

That’s correct—the endpoint shared here is currently the only way to add registrants to a meeting via API. I’m afraid we don’t support handling this via a webhook.

Let me know if you have any other questions about this.

Thanks,  
Will
