Participant video on: results are different with https:// vs zoommtg://

API and Webhooks
#1

Hello,

I am generating meetings via the API. I have set participant video “on” as seen in the screenshot below.
Example meeting ID: 66284061607

When I open the meeting with zoommtg:// participant video is off. When I open it with the https:// link, I can choose to join with or without video.

Is the UX supposed to be different for both of these protocols? Thank you.

Hi @lucas.cioffi,

Thanks for reaching out about this. As we no longer are supporting client URL schemes such as zoommtg://, you will want to reference the standard start and join URLs for your meetings to ensure that the settings designated when the meeting was created are accurately reflected.

In the API response, that would be the start_url and join_url.

Thanks!
Will
