I am currently using 1.7.5 web SDK. I want to create a list of users who are currently in the meeting. I want to have to ability to kick a attendee out of the meeting, mute them or put them on hold. I see there are functionalities for it. I am confused as to which userId I should use while calling those functions in Web SDK. I obtained ‘id’ by using [https://api.zoom.us/v2/users](https://api.zoom.us/v2/users) API for the attendees you have joined the meeting but that doesn’t work. Can someone guide me which userId I should be using and how to obtain that? ---

Hey @greg.stanford, You will need to use the participant IDs listed from the [getAttendeeslist](https://zoom.github.io/sample-app-web/ZoomMtg.html#getAttendeeslist) Web SDK function, or the [getCurrentUser](https://zoom.github.io/sample-app-web/ZoomMtg.html#getCurrentUser) function. Thanks, Tommy ---

I was able to get the userId and perform all the above actions successfully. When I put the user on hold. Is there a way to determine the status of the user (whether he/she is put on hold)? EDIT: After you remove a user from the meeting using expel user. Is there a way to refresh/update the meeting GUI? Meeting GUI is frozen for the user which was expelled from the meeting. ---

Hey @greg.stanford, Glad you are able to get the actions working! 🙂 > [@greg.stanford](#): > > Is there a way to determine the status of the user (whether he/she is put on hold)? It should be returned from the [getCurrentUser](https://zoom.github.io/sample-app-web/ZoomMtg.html#getCurrentUser) and [getAttendeeslist](https://zoom.github.io/sample-app-web/ZoomMtg.html#getAttendeeslist) functions. > [@greg.stanford](#): > > EDIT: After you remove a user from the meeting using expel user.

I’d imagine they should be redirected to the leaveUrl. Thanks, Tommy ---

Hey @greg.stanford, I am also trying to implement the above functionalities as mentioned in question. > [@tommy](#): > > You will need to use the participant IDs listed from the [getAttendeeslist](https://zoom.github.io/sample-app-web/ZoomMtg.html#getAttendeeslist) Web SDK function, or the [getCurrentUser](https://zoom.github.io/sample-app-web/ZoomMtg.html#getCurrentUser) function. I tried the suggested solution but these functions are not working. They are returning “undefined”. I have called these functions after join success callback. Please suggest how should I use them so that they work as expected. Zoom SDK version is: 1.7.7 Browser: Google Chrome, Version 81.0.4044.129 (Official Build) (64-bit) OS: macOS Mojave, Version 10.14.6 Thanks ---

Okay, I figured out, anyway thanks! ---
