Question on developing an automatic notetaker that can join calls

Meeting SDK
1

Can we please get some help on the Zoom SDK.
Would like to understand how the sdk can be used to write a bot application that can join a call, record and download meta data like speaker timeline. Can this be done with the SDK?
Zoom SDK refers to create/join a session. How does this correlate to the meeting Id or url that we normally have accesss to

Any input in this area is appreciated
Thanks

@aruna1997 happy to share how to build a meeting bot.

If you’re using the Zoom Raw Data SDK, these are the steps:

  1. Spin up a server. We recommend AWS, GCP, or Digital Ocean.
  2. Use either the Windows or Mac Zoom SDK to launch an instance of the Zoom client.
  3. Once you have the Zoom SDK launched, and use the Raw Data functionality to extract the video and audio streams.
  4. This will return the video in I420 raw frames and audio in PCM 16LE raw format, so you’ll need to encode the audio and video yourself afterwards.
  5. Once you have one instance of this working, you’ll need to scale this across several servers if you want to run multiple bots simultaneously, which is required to have bots for multiple meetings.

Finally, another option is Recall.ai. It’s a simple 3rd party API that lets you use meeting bots to get raw audio/video from meetings without you needing to spend months to build, scale and maintain these bots.

Let me know if you have any questions!
