Hey guys, I’m implementing a Custom UI as in example2, extending the MeetingActivity class.  
I was wondering if there is any way of passing data from the class that initiates the meeting, to the class that extends the MeetingActivity class.

Hi [vp94](https://devforum.zoom.us/u/vp94),

Thanks for the post. Our SDK does not have any constraints on this. The following link could be helpful:

Hi Carson,

Thanks for your reply. I know that I could use intents, but the problem is that the class I want to pass the data to, is the class that extends the MeetingActivity class of the SDK, and which in my case is initiated with the `meetingService.joinMeetingWithParams(this, params, options)`. So I can’t just create a new intent.

Cheers!

Hi [vp94](https://devforum.zoom.us/u/vp94),

Thanks for the reply. For that case, you may need to use static variables to pass data.

Cheers!
