Meeting always created now, time requested seems to be ignored

[chrismurrph (Chris)]

Description
Creating a Meeting always ends up with a start time of now, rather than the start time requested

Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?
OAuth

Which Endpoint/s?

Create a meeting - Meetings - Zoom API - API Reference

How To Reproduce (If applicable)
This is the body that is being sent. The topic is read successfully because a meeting with that name is created.

{"start_time":"2021-02-24T10:00:00Z","topic":"I'm an AM2 Test Event","type":2,"timezone":"GMT"}

The name of the key (start_time) and the type and format of the value are both according to the docs. I’ve tried “UTC” for timezone, not that I think having the timezone attribute should be necessary. I’m checking the message attribute in the returned map and there is nothing there, as expected because I can see the topic as a new Meeting viewed from the Zoom web site.

Hi @chrismurrph,

I believe this is because you’re passing a start_time in the past. You will need to ensure you’re passing a start time in the future in order for it to be applied correctly.

Thanks,
Will
