Hi 19bobo,

Thanks for the post. Do you mean PMI? You can get the PMI from Zoom API:https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/user

Thanks!

Thanks. I’ll try it later.

I dont think PMI can help me. I want to get a user’s meeting number to start a meeting automatically. PMI and meeting number are different.

Hi 19bobo,

Thanks for the reply. PMI(Personal Meeting ID)(https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/203276937-Using-Personal-Meeting-ID-PMI-) is the meeting number that is assigned to each user. All other meeting numbers are not assigned to any accounts. If you would like to randomly get a meeting number, you may schedule a meeting or start an instant meeting.

Hope this helps. Thanks!

Thank you so much. But does this mean users who start a meeting must have their own API Keys and API Secrets?

Hi 19bobo,

If you would like to get the PMI number that is associated with each user’s account, then you will need the user’s API key and secret. But that is not recommended. If your use case is to create a meeting and start a meeting automatically, you may start an instant meeting if the user is logged in.

Hope this helps. Thanks!

Late thanks. Now i know that, if i want to create a meeting without inputting meeting number manually, i should use user’s API key and secret. And if i don’t have API key and secret, i must input a meeting number to start a meeting.

Hi 19bobo,

Thanks for the reply. Pardon the confusion and it sounds like you are mentioning covers different terms.

Based on the use cases in the original post, you said your user has already logged in with email and password, and you would like to just start a meeting. In fact, you could simply start an instant meeting for the logge- in user. Our demo app has this implementation:

  • After you logged in with your username and password, you could press the Video meeting button to start an instant meeting

Our demo app also covers other authentication methods like SSO login, Rest API without login(Only this method involves API key&secret). You could also look into the documentation here: https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/preface/account-user to understand the difference among these authentication methods.

Please have a try with our demo app and see if it helps your use cases. Hope this helps. Thanks!

Yes i knew it. An instance meeting with a loggin user has different meeting numbers. And i just want to start meeting with the same meeting number.
