I’m working on a React app that has a screen showing a discussion agenda. I’d like to have this screen be shared with all the participants at call start up.

If I have a Zoom session embedded in one tab of the app and the host has to manually start screen sharing, then select the browser containing the app, then they’ll need to navigate away from the tab containing the Zoom screen and they won’t be able to see the entire picture.

To state it more simple, is it possible to embed a screen share in a Zoom app and programmatically supply the content to be shared?

Hey @rob-sheely

Thanks for your feedback.

If it’s on the web platform, due to browser privacy settings, it’s not possible to bypass the browser’s content-sharing prompt through programmatic codes.

Thanks  
Vic
