Audio only calls

API and Webhooks

Hi,

Thank you for the reply. Using “host_video” and “participant_video” flags might be a reasonable solution. We will evaluate this with our team.

Thanks again,

Hi @okan,

At this time, we do not have a ready to use API for only Audio Calls, but here is a workaround:

  • You can consider using the Create Meeting API provided by zoom.

  • For the value of host_video and participant_video, set it to false.

Please note that even though the meeting would start without a video, either the host or the participant can change their video settings manually at any time.

Here are the types of recordings that would be generated.

  • Shared screen with speaker view : MP4 file with audio and video showing both active speaker view and shared content.
  • Shared screen with gallery view : MP4 file with audio and video showing both gallery view and shared content.
  • Active Speaker : MP4 file with audio and video showing the active speaker view only.
  • Gallery View : MP4 file with audio and video showing the gallery view only.
  • Shared Screen : MP4 file with audio and video showing the shared screen only.
  • Audio only : M4A file with a recording of the audio.
  • Audio transcript : VTT file with a transcript of the audio only.
  • Chat file : Text file with the transcript of in-meeting chat.

That being said, we will consider this as a feature request and update this thread once the features are added.

Thanks,
