Hello everyone, 😃

I’m looking for documentation on how to grab audio streams in real time.

I can’t find anything, not even what format they are in. I’ve tried reviewing past posts in this forum on the same subject but they seem outdated, for example one staff moderator pointed to this link ([https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/getlivestreamdetails](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/getlivestreamdetails)) which is a dead end.

How does Zoom supply its raw audio streams for programmatic access?

Are the audio streams encoded in Base64?

Can the connection be opened via Websocket?

Appreciate your assistance.

Cheers! 😃

Hi @synthien ,

Here’s the working link for the endpoint you referenced: [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/getmeetinglivestreamdetails](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/getmeetinglivestreamdetails)

At this time, I do not believe you can pull audio content streams in real time, but it would be a great #feature-requests !

Gianni
