Hi,

I´m having problems terminating the session.

When I use the method

```auto
GetSdkInstance()->leaveSession(false);

```

It works as it is supposed to…(Just leaving the session).

But when I set the leaveSession parameter to **true** … The session that is supposed to **terminate** , did not terminate and I do not leave the session… The onLeave delegate is never reached…

Just one more info: leaveSession returns ZoomVideoSDKErrors\_Success(0).

I am missing something… Could anyone help me?

Hi @kadu_cemo,

Can you please confirm whether the current user is the host of the session when you call this? Also, what is the return value of `leaveSession`?

Thanks!

**Hi Jon,**

The user who is terminating the session is the Host… So I´ve been coding lately and I found out that problem happens only when I create my session in a Thread different from main thread. So if I use the main thread from my app (the one that deals with my GUI) this problem disappears… 🤔

Does it make any sense?

Thank you in advance…

Hi @kadu_cemo,

All SDK methods should only be accessed on the main thread. I think our documentation had mentioned this, but it seems like it was accidentally removed. I’ll work with our documentation team on getting this info added back in.

Thanks!
