## Using this template helps us debug your issues more effectively 🙂

**Description**  
I’m trying to use the endpoint: **Get Webinar Details** endpoint ( /metrics/webinars/{webinarId} ). The Zoom documentation says that I can use either the “webinarId” or the “webinarUUID”, I’ve tried both and I get an exception “Meeting does not exist”. I’ve used the webinarId: 89404961187, as well as the following UUIDs:  
0pMytjpGRn+K2MbAzEx3hw==  
5AK+Is4FTJ+mlmX6GbNWTA==

This webinar occurred today August 5th, 2021. I joined as host and two additional participants, for a total of 3 participants. The webinar lasted about 20 seconds. When I try to get the details, I always get the exception “Meeting does not exist”

**Error**  
org.springframework.web.client.HttpClientErrorException$NotFound: 404 : [{“code”:3001,“message”:“Meeting does not exist: 89404961187.”}]

I get this after running the API call using REST template in Java Spring boot.

Perhaps I missed it, but I didn’t see this in the documentation at all. The fix is to include a get parameter ?type=past. So the endpoint would be something like:

/metrics/webinars/{webinarId}?type=past

This solved my issue.
