Is there a way to query the current state of a zoom room to get the information usually provided by webhooks?

e.g.

- Is the camera connected/disconnected
- Is there SIP connection error?
- Is controller batter low?
- etc

Currently we wait for webhook events to notify us of changes, but any downtime/error can cause the system to be out of sync and unable to show the user the current state of their zoom room.

Hey @boris,

You can use the List Zoom Rooms API which has a `status` property:

> **[List Zoom Rooms - Rooms - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/rooms/listzoomrooms)**
>
> Zoom Rooms is a software-based room system that provides an integrated experience for audio conferencing, wireless screen sharing and video conferencing...

Thanks,  
Tommy
