Greetings and Welcome, @gopinathangopika94,

Can you share more details regarding the SDK you are using? Also, please share the SDK version and specify whether you are using the Client and Component view.

version of SDK is v5.11.1.6653. Actually i used the app market place to create the SDk and JWT.and used the below code to integrate the same in my project.  
window.addEventListener(‘DOMContentLoaded’, function(event) {  
console.log(‘DOM fully loaded and parsed’);  
websdkready();  
});

function websdkready() {  
var testTool = window.testTool;  
if (testTool.isMobileDevice()) {  
vConsole = new VConsole();  
}  
console.log(“checkSystemRequirements”);  
console.log(JSON.stringify(ZoomMtg.checkSystemRequirements()));

// it’s option if you want to change the WebSDK dependency link resources. setZoomJSLib must be run at first  
// if (!china) ZoomMtg.setZoomJSLib(‘[https://source.zoom.us/2.5.0/lib](https://source.zoom.us/2.5.0/lib)’, ‘/av’); // CDN version default  
// else ZoomMtg.setZoomJSLib(‘[https://jssdk.zoomus.cn/2.5.0/lib](https://jssdk.zoomus.cn/2.5.0/lib)’, ‘/av’); // china cdn option  
// ZoomMtg.setZoomJSLib(‘[http://localhost:9999/node\_modules/@zoomus/websdk/dist/lib](http://localhost:9999/node_modules/@zoomus/websdk/dist/lib)’, ‘/av’); // Local version default, Angular Project change to use cdn version  
ZoomMtg.preLoadWasm(); // pre download wasm file to save time.

- NEVER PUT YOUR ACTUAL SDK SECRET IN CLIENT SIDE CODE, THIS IS JUST FOR QUICK PROTOTYPING
