Join meeting error after host ends the session

Video SDK Web
1

Description

When the host ends the meeting (client.leave(true)), and the guest attempts to join the room simultaneously, calling client.join(meetingId, token, userName, passcode) from ZoomSDK returns an error: Error: {“type”: “JOIN_MEETING_FAILED”, “reason”: “meeting ended”, “errorCode”: 4004}.

if guest init too long after host ended the meeting. When call client.join(meetingId, token, userName, passcode) will create new meeting session instead.

I want to know exactly when each scenario occurs. Example:

  • < 500ms after the host ends the Zoom meeting**: Calling client.join(meetingId, token, userName, passcode) will throw error 4004.
  • After 500ms: Calling client.join(meetingId, token, userName, passcode) will succeed and start a new meeting session.?

Thank you very much for your help!

Hey @lmtruong1512

Thanks for your feedback.

There is indeed a scenario where the meeting is ended, which is unrelated to the client.init method but rather to the client.join method. However, I can’t give you a specific time threshold. The issue usually occurs during the process of a user joining a session when the host ends the session.

The process of joining a session involves two steps:

  1. Retrieve the session ID using the topic: If there is an in-progress session under the same topic, the existing session is returned; otherwise, a new session is created.
  2. Connect to the media server using the session ID.

This creates some edge cases. If step 1 is completed but step 2 has not yet finished connecting to the media server, and the host ends the session during this time, it results in a JOIN_MEETING_FAILED error.

Thanks
