**Description**  
We want know if is possible to retrive the users camera streams from a known id meeting hosted by us. (simply the face of all the users, to put that streams on our web php/javascript portal).

We have tried various ways but it seems that this is not possible to accomplish with the Zoom API.

Hey @assistenza, thanks for posting and using Zoom!

Currently this is not really possible, but we are working on this. (No timeline yet).

> Hey @abhilash, Good question, are you trying to get the audio or [video stream](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/how-to-get-image-data-from-recipient-video-canvas/6101)? As of now we don’t have an API for you to get the realtime transcript, although it is possible via [creating a custom streaming service](https://support.3playmedia.com/hc/en-us/articles/360033663034-Zoom-Schedule-Live-Auto-Captioning-for-a-Zoom-Meeting). For example, checkout the functionality of the [3Play Media app](https://marketplace.zoom.us/apps/d054_tATQRaGPKxfs7SPnw). Thanks, Tommy

Thanks,  
Tommy
