There is meeting report with userId API

However, I can’t find similar API for webinar report with userId. The same question was asked [Does retrieve meetings report also retrieve webinars?](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/does-retrieve-meetings-report-also-retrieve-webinars/1575)

If there is no such webinar report API, Could you please help clarify how to get results like Dashboard\Webinars when enter some search keywords like user name.

I can only find API to retrieve Webinars with userId as following:

> **[List webinars - Webinars - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/webinars/webinars)**
>
> Zoom users with a Webinar Plan have access to creating and managing Webinars. Webinar allows a host to broadcast a Zoom meeting to up to 10,000 attendee...

but this API does not provide enough results as meeting reports

Hey @szhang,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. If you are looking for an API to get the User ID of participants from a Webinar, you can use the [Get Webinar Participant Reports API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/reports/reportwebinarparticipants).

Let me know if that works for you!

Thanks,  
Max

Thanks a lot for the reply!  
No, that is not what I want.

Use Case:  
I have userId at hand. I would like to get results like Dashboard\Webinar with the userId. With Dashboard\Webinar, when I enter user name (similar to userId) and click “search”, I can get all of the user’s past webinars in the date range.

Problem:  
I thought the following API is for meeting only, however, the test shows this API returns both meetings and webinars for the userId.

Questions:

1. So the question turns into how to distinguish meeting and webinar in this API result. Once I get webinars from the result, I can use the webinar uuid to access API Dashboards\Get webinar details  
[https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/dashboards/dashboardwebinardetail](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/dashboards/dashboardwebinardetail)

2. Is there a way to get data before 6 months ? The above API /report/users/{userId}/meetings only provides the past six months.

Thank you,

Hey @szhang,

Thank you for clarifying. I didn’t realize that API returned webinars either but I confirmed on my end that it does. I’ve since reached out to our documentation team to make sure that our documentation around this is clear. (DEVELOPERS-1199)

You can use the `type` parameter of each object in order to determine if it is a meeting or a webinar. Meetings will have the following types:

While Webinars will have these types:

This was taken from our documentation on the [Create a Meeting API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingcreate) and [Create a Webinar API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/webinars/webinarcreate).

> [@szhang](#):

There is not a way to query data older than 6 months. If you would like this feature to be considered for a future release, I recommend posting in the #Feature Requests category.

I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,  
Max
