Hi,

When using the GET /meetings/{meetingId} api endpoint it returns saying “Meeting ID does not exist” for meetings created by another account where I am invited as an attendee. It does give me the meeting details I am looking for for meetings that I create.

Is this the expected behavior for this api endpoint or should I be receiving the meeting details for any meeting id that I pass as a parameter, whether I am the host or not?

@lrylizaliturri you cannot get meeting details via API for meetings which are external to your account.

This is the correct design.

@chunsiong.zoom So the meeting created by an external account is not added to my account even if I am added as an attendee by the meeting creator?

@lrylizaliturri meeting created by external account exist on external account, and it is not “added” to your acccount.

@chunsiong.zoom  
Thank you for your help.

So is there no way to get the meeting passcode, or join url with passcode embedded, for a meeting created by a external account that I am invited to via API?

@lrylizaliturri this is not available via API.
