**Description**  
We have built end-to-end integration for joining Zoom webinars or Zoom meetings from our web app.  
But the issue is that - the Meeting ID and Meeting Password are opening visible in the API calls.

Is there a way - with which - for certain meetings or webinars I can mandate the attendee to join the meeting or webinar only through my web app?  
I am worried that - hackers - might be able to Zoom-bomb my meeting by stealing Meeting ID + Meeting Password from my API calls.

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

**Which Endpoint/s?**  
JS SDK

1. ZoomMtg.init({
2. ZoomMtg.join({
