Hi guan\_bj,  
Thanks for using Zoom SDK. We do not have existing interface to lock meeting UI. If you want to lock the orientation, here are some guidances (Not related to Zoom SDK):

Thanks Carson.  
I have implemented landscape when joining meeting. But it can’t be locked once user rotate device.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Our SDK supports both portrait and landscape. You will need to handle the orientation on your side. Configuring the following setting could be helpful:
