Registering: code 1001, "The email address has not been used as a Zoom account"

Hey @jkendall,

@jkendall

However this seems to be breaking now. Am I interpreting your last message as saying Zoom no longer supports external API registration for webinars without forcing the end user to have a zoom account? That is very concerning as the entire point of “webinars” is to deliver to an external audience without asking the end user to sign up for a service (e.g. creating a zoom account) as a direct customer…

You can totally register external Zoom users without them needing an account.

The cause of the error “The email address has not been used as a Zoom account.” when registering a user is because of the webinar requiring the user to login before joining. You can simply not set that setting.

Thanks,
