hello?  
I want to solve 2 questions which are related to ‘meeting duration’.

1. how can I get accurate meeting duration?  
I use api (GET: /meetings/{meetingId}) and get response about ‘duration’ but is it accurate?

2. how can I get meeting duration after more than 2 people participate?  
for example, A person participate 9 A.M, and B person participate 10 A.M, and meeting is progressing for 11 A.M. in this situation, I want to get meeting duration 1 hour not 2 hours
