Hi, I’m using the Zoom controls for send command to my system. I saw in the 3 august update, you add new rules. - **Room Controls** - Windows, macOS, iOS Support for incoming messages to prompt other controls. Support for Additional Rules: Room Operating Hours. I don’t see them in the sample file in the documentation. If it’s possible, can you send me a simple with the new rules ? Regards, Erwann ---

Hey @Erwann Thanks for posting on the Zoom Devforum! I am still learning, but I will try my best to help answer your question. 🙂 Checkout this related thread that may have the answer you are looking for: > [@Zoom Rooms Integration into Room Control App](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/-/427): > > Hi Zoom,   I currently run around 13 meeting rooms with Zoom Rooms installed. We have an App that is developed in-house to control the room Ie. Sceen on, Mode select, Lighting Control and Volume. After users select the Zoom option for the room then have to switch to the Zoom Room App on the iPad. This can be difficult for some users. It there any way to integrate the features of the Zoom Room App into my control app? If this thread did not help, please let us know by replying back here and someone from the Developer Relations team will get back to you shortly. Thanks, DeveloperBot ---

Hey @Erwann, Thanks for reaching out! Are you referring to API documentation to handle this programmatically or maybe our [support documentation](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115000542566-Zoom-Rooms-Controller-Features) for the Zoom Room Controllers? You can find all of the currently available functionality for Zoom Room APIs here: > **[Zoom Rooms API - Zoom Rooms - Documentation](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/zoom-rooms/zoom-rooms-api)** > > We are excited to announce the APIs to control Zoom Rooms.

If you’re more interested in the Support Documentation, I will recommend that you reach out to [support@zoom.us](mailto:support@zoom.us) as they’ll be able to best assist! Let me know, Will ---

Hi Will, Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately I don’t use the API.

Here is what we mentioned to Josh: "You can add the visibility tag to your current style in order to hide the item needed. Please see below for an example: In addition, you can set invisible=true for any method to be hidden from users from the UI." Let me know if that helps! slight_smile Thanks, Tommy I already tried to reach the support, but they didn’t answer me in 17 days. It’s starting to be urgent for me to have this. Regards, Erwann ---
