Hi @muhameda.radwan,

Thank you for posting and using Zoom. Yes, you can display your own dialog by using a Flag in the INIT function to disable the default dialogs. If you pass “isShowJoiningErrorDialog: false” to the .init function then those dialogs should not show and you can show your own inside error handlers. I’ve linked our the INIT SDK documentation below:

[ZoomMtg - Documentation](https://marketplacefront.zoom.us/sdk/meeting/web/ZoomMtg.html#init)

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Best,  
Donte

But can be defaulted to show the error message to dialog like showing this error  
“Meeting not started” rather than your connection has timed out ?

Because of this problem, we are having trouble using it! When I do the meeting approval\_type 1, I can record but it gives the following error in the web SDK.  
error:  
zoom api HTTP Request returned Status Code 400. Registration has not been enabled for this meeting: 83398426343.

Hey @ibrahimh.cadirci,

Thank you for providing more information. It sounds like you encounter this issue when calling the Zoom API, is that correct? Are you able to share steps to reproduce the issue and potentially a screenshot of where you’re seeing that error?

I’ll use that to look into this further.

Thanks,  
Max
