Is the content (participants, chats, other recordings, etc.) associated with breakout rooms available via the REST API? If not, is this on your roadmap and what is the timing?

Hi @steve.jones,

It’s not currently possible to get the content you’re asking about, specifically for breakout rooms. That said, this is a great suggestion, and we do hope to add breakout room functionality to our APIs in the future. If you’re so inclined, I would recommend adding this suggested functionality to our #feature-requests channel.

Thanks,  
Will
