Create/Schedule a Zoom meeting

Description
Hi everyone! I am a self-taught programmer working on a React app which has a form in it and on form submit I want to schedule/book a Zoom meeting. I have checked ‘create a meeting API’ but I am not quite sure where to start. Are there any other docs/tutorials or code snippets that I should check to start with? I have only worked with API where I retrieve/fetch data so I am quite confused about what approach I should go with. Any advices will be very helpful. Thanks in advance!

Hey @yengyaw,

Thanks for reaching out about this, and welcome to the Zoom Developer Community!

First, I should clarify that you’re on the right path, if you wish to schedule a meeting. Our Create Meeting API endpoint would be the correct one:

This endpoint uses a POST http method (rather than get, for fetching data), which means you would need to pass the inputs from your app’s form into the request body when you send a request along to our API. If you have questions about making POST requests, I might recommend checking out stackoverflow for help with this aspect—you may find something like this helpful:

If you have questions about the Zoom API, though, just let us know!

Best,
Will
