I am using zoom meeting sdk npm package and some zoom api’s for creating the zoom meeting dynamically
“v2/users/me/meetings”, with these setings {
host_video: true,
participant_video: true,
join_before_host: false,
mute_upon_entry: true,
waiting_room: true, // Enable waiting room
breakout_room: {
enable: true,
},
}
but now i want to disable the chat for everyone for the participants to host only so search some key to update while creating the meeting

      participant_chat: true,
      allow_participants_chat_with: 1, // Host only
      allow_participants_send_direct_message: false,

but i get to know that these keys are not available
so please help me to update this while creating meeting

and is these any option for update the zoom meeting interface for both host and participants

hi @jim7 ,
Welcome to the community.
You can not do that in the meeting api
However, if you login to the zoom.us and have a look at settings you can set it for all meetings, remembering that the host can override this in the meeting.

hi Jim,

I am not sure execlty what you want to customise.
But if you want to create a custom experience you have two options.

  1. In Zoom you can now go into the admin, create a user group and then restrict them access to certain features. I dont think that is what you want.
  2. You can use the SDK to build your own version of Zoom in the Browser and have pretty much control to enable to disable anything. This can be a big job and I would first question what payback you are asking for.

all the best
