Hello @tommy
Due to waiting room settings it displayed host needs to start the meeting,so this issue is resolved.But still i have a doubt why i’m able to join the meeting if use_pmi is true, waiting room is enabled, choose which participants to place in the waiting room:Everyone.
I also tried creating a meeting with “join_before_host” set to true, yet, I’m still getting the “Waiting for host to start this meeting” prompt when a user joins before the host. Below is my request code in JS.
Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. Please confirm that the Waiting Room setting is disabled for the meeting. This can be done either through the Zoom Portal or the Create a Meeting API. As we can see in the images below, having the Waiting Room enabled will override the Join Before Host setting.
I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you for providing additional information. I just want to clarify that the request portion you sent is part of a settings object. Is that correct? Would you be able to provide the entire request that you’re using?
Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. Please provide the full request that you’re using to create these meetings as well as the response that you get from the API.
I’ll investigate this further with that information.
