Hi team,

I’m building an app (General app, **admin-managed** ) that uses RTMS to receive live transcript data from Zoom Meetings, powering an AI discussion-facilitation tool for a university research pilot.

**What’s configured:**

- RTMS scopes added: `rtms:read:rtms_concurrency_near_limit:admin`, `rtms:read:rtms_interrupted:admin`, `rtms:read:zcc_voice_rtms_interrupted:admin`, `rtms:read:zcc_voice_rtms_started:admin`, `rtms:read:zcc_voice_rtms_stopped:admin`
- Zoom Developer Pack free trial is active on the account (confirmed under Plans & Billing — 0/20 credits used)
- Event Subscription webhook endpoint is added and has passed Zoom’s URL validation challenge successfully

**The problem:** under the event subscription’s “Add events” picker, the only category with RTMS-related events is Account → RTMS, offering only **Zoom Phone** and **ZCC Voice** event types — no plain Meeting-level RTMS events (`meeting.rtms_started`/`meeting.rtms_stopped`/`meeting.rtms_interrupted`), and none under the Meeting category either. The app’s Access page also shows “This feature is not available based on your product selection” on the Auto-start panel.

I found a very similar recent thread (App ID ve8GswEZTFOl2V\_VvadRAw) with the identical symptom, where Zoom asked whether that app was user-managed vs admin-managed — ours is **admin-managed** , chosen specifically because our actual meeting topology has many individual hosts (students, in a research study) rather than one central host, so we wanted a single account-wide install rather than per-user authorization. If admin-managed is in fact why Meeting RTMS isn’t available, I’d appreciate knowing that directly, since it changes our app setup.

**Client IDs:**

- Development: aRFxhi5RNuELU\_ZigFrpw
- Production: 07NPUcx4SLCByKHO0NxPA

**Questions:**

1. Does Meeting RTMS require separate backend enablement beyond the Developer Pack trial and scopes?
2. Is admin-managed vs. user-managed actually the blocker here?
3. Does this require a paid Workplace plan rather than Basic/free? (Account is currently on Basic.)

Thanks for the help.

does switching to user-managed fully resolve this, and given we’re also seeing an unresolved activation issue on a separate user-managed app, is there something else required beyond the management-type switch itself?

Separately: does the Zoom Apps SDK / in-meeting surface (shareApp, used for a different app we’re testing) require a paid Workplace plan beyond the Developer Pack credits? Our account is currently on Basic.
