FYI, using a free plan.

I tried using “/meetings/{meetingId}/registrants” endpoint and got a response asking to use a paid plan.

But the create meeting endpoint returned a success response and even created the meeting with invited members, but failed to send invitation email despite registrants_confirmation_email email to true.

Can this selective functioning of the API be because I am on the free plan?

Hi @yash3 ,

you need to be on a paid plan to access those features

Hey @ojus.zoom , thanks for the reply.
Is there a list of methods I can use with the free plan?

Might not make economical sense for the company to work for the “free users”, but the API response could be tweaked to indicate this. Right now the API returns a success response, with these parameters’ values as true.
