**API Endpoint(s) and/or Zoom API Event(s)**  
[https://api.zoom.us/v2/past\_meetings/83497157003/participants](https://api.zoom.us/v2/past_meetings/83497157003/participants)

**Description**  
When downloading a participant CSV report for the above meeting from the admin, it list 69 participants along with their attendance time (although in the header row it is claiming 79 participants).

When trying to access the same data via the past\_meetings participants API, it returns a single user (who does not appear in the CSV export).

I’ve tried other meeting IDs, and they seem to return the correct data via the API.

Hi @seb.duggan  
Thanks for reaching out to us!  
Can you please try using the meeting UUID to call the API. If the same meeting ID was used more than once, you will need to call the endpoint using the meeting uuid that corresponds to the meeting you are trying to query
