Hey @ngotungdat1997,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. If you want to create a meeting programmatically, you can use our [Create a Meeting API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingcreate).

When it comes to consuming RESTful APIs with C#, you might find the following 3rd party article to be helpful:

> **[A Few Great Ways to Consume RESTful API in C# - Code Maze](https://code-maze.com/different-ways-consume-restful-api-csharp/)**
>
> RESTful APIs are an integral part of our lives. Because of that is important to know how to consume a RESTful API and which tools are at your disposal.

If you want to embed the Zoom experience in your website, then that’s where our [Web SDK](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/web#zoom-web-sdk) comes in.

You can find more information on that in the following historical forum post:

> [@Account-level vs User-managed level](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/account-level-vs-user-managed-level/48202/3):
>
> Hey @seveneight and @pankajmcaniet, Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. I’m happy to help! Even with a free Zoom account, you should be able to test our APIs by creating account-level or user-level apps. Once you’re done testing, based on your use case, it sounds like you will want a [Pro Plan](https://zoom.us/pricing) or higher. You can absolutely accomplish this with our APIs! With this app, either a user level or account level app would make sense. With a user level app, each student and teache…

I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,  
Max

Hey @ngotungdat1997,

If you wish to create/join meetings from the browser, the Web SDK will be your best resource as Max mentioned. While we don’t currently have a sample app for our Web SDK in C#, I suggest taking a look at our basic Sample App, which could be tailored to a C# implementation of your own:

> **[zoom/websdk](https://github.com/zoom/websdk)**

> Zoom Web SDK. Contribute to zoom/websdk development by creating an account on GitHub.

Hey @will.zoom  
I created meeting using api and got an error running the program.

Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: ‘Error reading JObject from JsonReader. Path ‘’, line 0, position 0.’

var client = new RestClient($“[https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/{userId}/meetings](https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/%7BuserId%7D/meetings)”);  
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);  
request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;  
request.AddJsonBody(new { topic = “Course…”, duration = “10”, start\_time = “2021-04-20T05:00:00”, type = “2” });

```
        request.AddHeader("authorization", String.Format("Bearer {0}", tokenString));
        IRestResponse restResponse = client.Execute(request);
        HttpStatusCode statusCode = restResponse.StatusCode;
        int numericStatusCode = (int)statusCode;
        var jObject = JObject.Parse(restResponse.Content);

Hey @ngotungdat1997,

Based on the error, this seems like an exception in your program—it sounds like your function wasn’t able to read/parse the JSON object you’re passing with your request.

Are you seeing any Zoom API response errors? If not, I believe this is limited to your program.

Thanks,  
Will

Hi @ngotungdat1997,

You can query this API by Meeting ID to see when a participant joined and left:

> **[Get meeting participant reports - Reports - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/reports/reportmeetingparticipants)**

Hey @ngotungdat1997,

The [Web SDK](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/web#zoom-web-sdk) only supports [Cloud Recording](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/203741855-Cloud-recording) at this time.

Hey @ngotungdat1997,

Currently, the play\_url does not support being embedded in an iframe so you will want download the recording and serve it from your app instead.

If you would like embeddable recordings to be considered for a future release, I recommend posting in the #feature-requests category.

Thanks,

Hey @ngotungdat1997,

Thanks for your questions!

> [@ngotungdat1997](#):
>
> the return record is not on time.

Are you able to provide more information on the issue you’re seeing? Are timestamps for a recording in a different timezone than what you’ve set on your account? Are you seeing they follow the timezone of the meeting?

> [@ngotungdat1997](#):
>
> Can I save the meeting list to my database?

You can use the [List Meetings API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetings) in order to obtain a JSON array of meetings. Then, you can save that data to your database.

Thanks,  
Max

Hey @ngotungdat1997,

This happens when using JWT, correct? I would make sure that your server time is set to UTC just to ensure that there aren’t any issues with time synchronization.

If that doesn’t help, try copying the JWT token from the 90 minute example provided on your App Credentials page. Let me know if you see the same issues with that token.

Thanks,  
Max
