I am a web application developer. This application has access restrictions for certain students. We currently use the Zoom platform for lives, being made available to everyone. We are planning to add new content, but only for some of our students.

Today the validation we have in our application is through email, where we restrict some access.

How to work with the Zoom API to restrict access to rooms for certain emails.

Hi @adm,

When you state “rooms” do you mean restrict access to meetings for certain emails? If so, then you can use the add meeting registrant APIs[1] to restrict access to certain users. Additionally if it’s a domain name, then you can use the authenication\_domains property[2].

Let us know if this helps.

Thanks
