As an API user (i.e. a user that purchased the API Partner Plan), is there a limit as to how many concurrent meetings (same start time) I can schedule?

Hi @briceicle,

Welcome to the Zoom Developer Community.

There is no limit on the number of concurrent meetings you can schedule. But you can only host one meeting at a time. For more details, please visit here: [https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/206122046-Can-I-Host-Concurrent-Meetings-](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/206122046-Can-I-Host-Concurrent-Meetings-)

We had a similar request from one of our users previously, and here is a workaround that I recommended him. Let me know if this works in your case: [Host multiple concurrent 1-1 chats without user registration](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/host-multiple-concurrent-1-1-chats-without-user-registration/4833/4)

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks,  
Ojus

Thanks for your response.

Is there a limit on the number of custCreate users that an API Partner can create?

Theres no limit, but be cautious of what level of user you are creating as there could be [billing](https://zoom.us/pricing) implications.

Do these “custCreate” users show up on the users list? i.e. will Zoom account Admins now see a higher users count?

Correct. They [will show up here](https://zoom.us/account/user/pending) until they activate their account by clicking the email sent to them.

Then once they activate their account, they will show up in [this list](https://zoom.us/account/user) on the Owner/Admin account.

Let me know if this helps!

@tommy are you sure about that? According to the documentation of **[custCreate](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/usercreate)**, “A user created in this way has no password and is not able to log into the Zoom web site or client.”

A **custCreate** user would not receive an email invite according to that documentation. So why would they show up in the Admin users list?

Hey @briceicle,

Apologies, you are correct. The `custCreate` users will not show up in the Admin users list.

The `create` users will show up in the Admin users list.

Thanks @tommy for confirming. What are the billing implications of `custCreate` users since they do not show up in the Admin users list?

Happy to help!

The `custCreate` is billed differently because it is part of our [API Partner Plan](https://zoom.us/plan/api).

Thanks,
