Opening new breakout rooms without roomId programmatically in 2.14

[dnna (Dimosthenis)]

Hello,

I noticed the new breakout room APIs introduced in version 2.14, which is amazing! But when trying to use it, I noticed the openBreakoutRooms function in the component view SDK requires a list of existing rooms (with roomId needing to be already defined). How do we create brand new rooms from an empty state, is there an API I have missed?

The goal is, I’m trying to provide the user with an alternative UI to create them from scratch, using the new APIs, without needing to visit the breakout room tabs at all.

Responding here:

Is the component view SDK actually production ready?

Hi @dnna , Thanks for sharing these points. In doing some troubleshooting with the component view SDK myself, these are valid questions. I am going to reach out to some teammates who work primarily with MSDK to get some answers.

Hi @dnna ,

This feature does not exist yet. There is an open request for createBreakoutRoom api to be developed. When it is ready for production use, it will be shared via developer changelog (ZOOM-566649) .
