Hey @rohit,

If you are trying to join the meeting via browser only, user the following link:

Hi, I am working on Creating Webinars through REST API calls.I receive a join_urI after webinar creation.I had embeded this join_url to a button in our Web Application. I have also installed Zoom App. Onclicking button, another new tab opens with join url in address bar and then Zoom Desktop app is launched with confirmation from a pop up…

How to avoid this pop-up confirmation and directly launch Zoom Plugin if already installed in Client machine…

I have a similar problem to vietanhle2399. Upon clicking xdg-open, a new, empty browser window opens without any url nor page content nor error message. Zoom is installed and works if I manually enter meeting details. I’m using google-chrome instead of firefox and am on Ubuntu 18.04.
