When UI Toolkit video session start, I can only leave this session by clicking the red telephone button on right top. How can I leave session from the program.  
I tried  
zoom.onSessionLeave()  
but the session does not leaved.  
Is there any proper method to leave on Swift?

Hi @cmiyaji ,

With the UI Toolkit, you can programmatically leave a session by calling `uitoolkit.closeSession(sessionContainer)`. See our [documentation](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/video-sdk/web/ui-toolkit/#leave-or-end-session) for more information, and please let me know if this answers your question!

Thanks,  
Rehema

Thank Rehma for answering my question.  
I use Swift, and use GIT ui toolkit sample to test. It opens zoom session  
let vc = UIToolkitVC(sessionContext: SessionContext(jwt: jwt, sessionName: sessionName, username: username))  
But this vc does not have closeSession () method.  
where I’ll find closeSeesion() method?

Dear Rehema

I found the method eventually, dismiss(…) is the method to leave the session.  
open the zoom,  
`self.zoom = UIToolkitVC(sessionContext: SessionContext(jwt: info.jwt, sessionName: info.sessionName, username: info.userIdentity))`  
and close it by  
`self.zoom.dismiss(animated: true)`  
close the session.

This is what I want for closing the session, but I have a bit different session control to pause it. I’ll write on different topic, I’m glad that you’ll show the solution.
