Create a Meeting with a time limit

[ExymDev (Exym)]

Hello.

When creating a meeting with the POST /users/{userId}/meetings api endpoint, is there a way to impose a time limit to that meeting? what we want to achieve is something like the limits imposed over free accounts that is, 40 minutes, I think?.

@ExymDev ,

Thank you for writing us in the Zoom developer forum! Currently, there is no way to impose a time limit on meetings when creating a meeting. However, consider using the Update Meeting Status endpoint, which allows you to end the meeting through the API by updating its status to “end.” Here is a helpful post on this topic you can reference for more details :

How to end meeting with Zoom API

Hi @yimeichuah, Are you using the Zoom Web Client? If so, there’s not a way to hide the controls. In regards to ending a meeting, you can make use of our Update Meeting Status endpoint: This allows you to end the meeting through the API by updating its status to “end.” If you need to end it after 1 hour, for example, you could also use of the Meeting Started Webhook/Event, and trigger that to call the above endpoint after the desired duration has passed. Let me know if this helps! Will
