**Description**  
I’m trying to get the same participant fields for past webinars from a Zoom API Endpoint that I can currently get from the manual CSV download.  
In particular the “Time In Session” field, but also “Country/Region Name”.

**Errors**  
Whether I use the Participants or the Registrants endpoints there is no field for the “Time in Session” field.  
“Country/Region Name” is coming through blank

**Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?**  
JWT

**Which Endpoint/s?**  
I have mainly tried  
v2/past\_webinars/9XXXXXXXXXX/participants  
/v2/webinars/9XXXXXXXXXX/registrants  
but also  
/v2/webinars/9XXXXXXXXXX/participants  
/v2/metrics/9XXXXXXXXXX/participants

**Additional context**  
The fields which come through in the past webinars/participants reports are:  
Attended  
User Name  
First Name  
Last Name  
Email  
Country/Region  
Organization  
Job Title  
Registration Time  
Approval Status  
Join Time  
Leave Time  
Time in Session (minutes)

These fields do come through for the meetings endpoint (/v2/report/meetings/9071401427/participants) - which seems a little quirky given that meetings are free to run.

Ideally all I want is a JSON file that holds the registrant ID, the Time in Session and the Country.

Thanks for any help  
Matt

Hey @Coriel-11,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. Please try using the [Get Meeting Participant Reports API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/reports/reportmeetingparticipants) for the duration and registrant ID:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/e/4/e41c06f55e15676a6e237ef126f6c875cd2fe730.png)

You can also get the location and registrant ID from the [List Meeting Participants Dashboard API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/dashboards/dashboardmeetingparticipants)

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks,  
Max

Hi @MaxM

Unfortunately the "“Get Meeting Reports API” doesn’t work for webinars, only for normal meetings. I just get an error status. Same with the “List Meeting Participants Dashboard API”

Thank-you for taking the time to help though. Do you have any other ideas that might help?

Hey @Coriel-11,

My apologies for linking the wrong API there but we also have the [Get Webinar Participant Reports API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/reports/reportwebinarparticipants) as well as the [Get Webinar Participants Dashboard API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/dashboards/dashboardwebinarparticipants).

I hope that helps!

Thanks,  
Max

Thanks again @MaxM.

The first one works and gives me the duration data - thank you so much.

For the second one, though, I’m getting an error status when I run the one on the link (  
/metrics/webinars/{webinarId}/participants). So I tried the following variations. For each I got a 200 status, but no data at all (despite using the same webinarIDs as for the 1st one):

- /metrics/past\_webinars/{webinarId}/participants
- /webinars/{webinarId}/participants
- /metrics/{webinarId}/participants

Any more ideas?

Thanks again for the first one.

Matt

Hey @Coriel-11,

When you’re calling the /metrics endpoints, are you including the type=past query parameter?

Thanks,  
Will

Hi @will.zoom ,

A-ha! That’s it. I hadn’t been doing that (took me a while to figure out you just have to add “?type=past” onto the end of the endpoint url, and now it’s actually working!!). Thank you so much.
