We are seeing duplicated UUID’s across different meetings and this is limiting our options to uniquely identify meetings when they come to our system. Forcing us to do fuzzy matching instead of exact matching.

When we brought up this issue several months ago Zoom Team said they were unique and they shouldn’t be duplicated, but see that happening from time to time as seen in the screenshots (one was a single time meeting, the other was a recurring one) ← NOTE This forum system was unable to post screenshots but I’m happy to provide. Thanks.

@josh.schachter Is this issue specific to Zoom Apps or are you seeing this issue across all of Zoom? Are you able to share the screenshot that you were referring to?
