Hey guys. I’m working on a website that’s going to help us manage all our zoom calls (We do a lot of them).
I’m going to be creating most of the calls via API, but I can’t figure out how to keep unwanted users out of our zoom calls.
I can use the zoom client embedding start urls into buttons/links or the web client SDK.
Here’s all the issues I’ve ran into so far…
If I use an invite url, the invited people can share the link with unwanted guests.
If I add a password, the hashed password is included in the invite url.
If i use the web SDK and hide the sharing feature, the call is still started with an id and password that users can pull from the network tab and share with others to join the meeting.
If I use registration, after registering users can share the registration link with unwanted guests.
I could enforce login, but I’m not sure what that would do besides annoy our users XD.
To sum up, how do we prevent unwanted visitors in our zoom meetings/webinars?
Well, I don’t understand how using registration helps here. I tried doing a meeting with registration. After registering I got a link that I was able to share with somebody else and we were both able to join the meeting.
Also, what security benefit do I get from enforcing login?
Is there like, a way to create a list of emails of who’s allowed to join? I feel like I’m missing something.
We’ve been having problems with people sharing links, especially with larger meetings and webinars, which is why I’m trying to figure this out.
