Description
Full api url is in the Title (Got an error that I can only put 2 links in the body).
Hi so when I make an authenticate GET to /api.zoom.us/v2/users/me/recordings?from=2021-08-01
I get
{
“from”: “2021-08-07”,
“to”: “2021-09-07”,
“page_count”: 0,
“page_size”: 0,
“total_records”: 0,

Expectation: Meeting array to have at least one because I do have a cloud recording (done one for test and I have a paid account).
Reality: Meeting array always empty

Additional context
I looked at this Attempting to list meetings always returns an empty meeting list - #3 by tommy but it doesn’t look like my issue. I went ahead and create a meeting with 2 users and it still return an empty meetings array.

Hey @jnelson-zoom,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. I just have a couple of questions to get started:

  1. Does using the User ID change the behavior?
  2. When setting a from and to field that are a month apart do you see the recording returned?

Thanks,
Max

Hi @MaxM
Thank you.
Adding the userId actually work! But how would I able able to get all the recordings at a “team” level per say. Would I need to grab all users in the org/team to use their userId. I feel like there must be a better way?

Hey @jnelson-zoom,

Have you had a chance to check out this account recordings endpoint? This might be what you’re looking for:

Thanks,
Will
