Hi folks

In my android app, I’m using a webview which catches request to open Zoom meeting.

First, I use API request to create a meeting and get the start URL like:

[https://zoom.us/s/](https://zoom.us/s/) **790912691**?zpk=F2anhOtkAsMKaTndg9MTiHOUI4LOCnM895EhTi3TDmY.AwckYjgzYTBjNzItM

&nbsp;

My question is: is there a method in Zoom SDK that takes this URL or its tokens, i.e., meetingID & zpk, and starts the meeting without the need to specify the userID or any other options ?

&nbsp;

Thanks!

&nbsp;

Hi Yusuf,

for Android SDK, please follow the same step in the sample on how to start and join meeting.

Best
