Is it possible to automatically open the meeting in share screen view? I am trying to use the web-sdk to create a new meeting and switch to share automatically so that any user that joins this meeting will immediately see shared screen view. ---

Hey @meir.bond, Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. Currently, we don’t have a method to automatically share a users screen either through the Zoom Client(s) or the [Web SDK](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/web#zoom-web-sdk). This is due to privacy and security processes implemented both on our side as well as within most web browsers. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Max ---
