Realtime API Participants Request

API and Webhooks
1

I am creating an app that hopes to help organize Zoom Rooms at my university.
However my fellow developers and I are wondering if there is any way to get the number of participants in a given zoom room in real time.

We need this feature as according to our university policy only a certain number of students can collaborate at a given moment on an assignment and thus need to update our front-end when the number of participants in a call hits 3 for example.

Is it possible to do this using the zoom API or is the only way to query the Zoom database everytime we want to check how many participants are in a given room.

Thank you!

Hey @mss91,

You can do this in a two ways, one using our Participant Joined Webhooks, or the Live Participant Dashboard API.

Thanks,
Tommy
