Integrating a Mindfulness Break Timer into Zoom Meetings via API

API and Webhooks
1

Hello Zoom Developer Community,

I’m working on a project to enhance virtual meetings with short mindfulness breaks, inspired by tools like Calmytime , which provides quick relaxation exercises. I’d like to use the Zoom API to integrate a feature that prompts meeting participants to pause for a 1-2 minute mindfulness session at set intervals (e.g., every 45 minutes). Ideally, this would display a timer or notification within the Zoom meeting interface.

Has anyone here built something similar using Zoom’s API or SDK? I’m particularly curious about which endpoints might help trigger in-meeting notifications or overlays for this purpose. I’m new to Zoom’s developer tools, so any guidance on getting started or examples of integrating custom features like this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your insights!

hi @Muhammadsaqlain786 ,

Welcome to the community.

I auggest you look in the marketplace for the apps that use graphics and lower thirds etc.
I have a couple of apps in that area,

You want to run a zoom app and look at the camera options which allows you to replace or add to the video feed with your own web page of graphics.
You could also look at the marketplace zoom music app, so see how you can share music

Good luck, great idea

all the best

John
