I’m currently able to read meeting transcripts using Node.js, but due to production constraints, we may not be able to use Node in our final implementation.

Is it possible to read the transcripts using **Java** instead? If yes, could you please share a sample code snippet or reference implementation?

Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Great question @Hemanth1! If you want to use a different runtime/language than what we support then I recommend using the Websocket method to connect to RTMS. That way, it is language agnostic so you should be able to use Java without an issue.

Here’s a doc to help get started: [Get meeting transcripts from Realtime Media Streams using WebSockets](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/rtms/quickstart-websockets/)

Let me know if you have any other questions!
