Hey @Srinivas_Yalala

Thanks for posting on the Zoom Devforum! I am still learning, but I will try my best to help answer your question. 🙂

Checkout this related thread that may have the answer you are looking for:

> [@API call to send email notification to Alternative Hosts?](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/-/5053):
>
> When assigning an alternative host to a meeting within Zoom, the assigned alt hosts are sent an email from Zoom informing them of the assignment, also when they get unassigned as alt hosts. Updating a meeting via the API and setting the ‘alternative\_hosts’ string on the meeting doesn’t trigger any email notifications to users. Is there a way to trigger these emails being sent to alt hosts via the API or send a custom email to specific emails addresses through Zoom using the API?

If this thread did not help, please let us know by replying back here and someone from the Developer Relations team will get back to you shortly.

Thanks,

I am looking for host to get email from during meeting creation through ZOOM API.

Someone mentioned that, this is bug fix and will be delivered in Oct month in the link: [Host not getting any schedule/update meeting emails](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/host-not-getting-any-schedule-update-meeting-emails/25020)

Please let us know what has been fixed and any parameters need to added in the script to receive email to host by zoom api.
