Is it possible for a chatbot to run alongside video meetings?

I’m interested in the chatbot APIs, but it talks about the “zoom chat client”.

I would like the chatbot to live in the sidebar chat while a video call is going on, is that possible?
Or is ‘meetings’ a different zoom app than ‘chats’ ?

on the main zoom app the “meetings” and “chat” seem to launch different apps in a new window.

also the Marketplace talks about apps compatible with different features

So is it possible to build a chat bot to run alongside video meetings?

I haven’t actually seen chatbots run alongside meetings, maybe this is why?

Thanks!

Hey Tommy,

Is there any plan to bring Chat APIs to the In Meeting Chat in the foreseable future? It seems strange to have an API for a part of the product that I would guess 99% of users don’t use vs part of the product that is used daily by many users.

Thanks!

Hey @vandalayindustries,

Thanks for the feedback, and definitely hear where you’re coming from. While we don’t have any solid timelines to bring this to the in-meeting functionality, I’d definitely encourage you to consider posting in #feature-requests, as I think you raise a great point.

Best,
Will
