I’m developing an automatic live caption App on zoom. I’m able to set up the web-hook and stream zoom audio back to our platform. After generating caption, I currently use the /closedcaption endpoint to post it back to zoom. But this requires me to manually input the caption url for each meeting, which is very inconvenient. Is there a way that I can do this without the manual input? ---

Hi @sean-c, to give additional context for future readers, currently the Meeting Host must manually copy the API Token for a third-party Closed Captioning service. I’ll investigate how we can provide this via REST API (this would probably require OAuth). ---

Thanks @michael.zoom! I think it should be possible. The App “Rev” in Zoom’s marketplace does not require manual copy of the caption url. ---

Hey @sean-c, We do have a feature request already for this. (ZOOM-100289) Stay updated here: [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/changelog](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/changelog) Thanks, Tommy ---

@tommy Is it possible to get the URL from Zoom’s WebHook response? I do see Zoom apps like “Rev Live Captions” provide live captions without the URL ---

Hey @sean-c, I am not sure how Rev does it since we do not have an API or webhook for this. Feel free to ask them. 🙂 Thanks, Tommy ---

Thanks @tommy ! For the **[wmcc.zoom.us/closedcaption](http://wmcc.zoom.us/closedcaption)** endpoint, is there anyway to generate the **‘ns’** and **‘signature’** values from my side? ---
