**Which version?** SDK - v4.6.21666.0428 Xcode - 11.5 Swift - 5 **Description** Hello, so I’m trying to start a meeting without the user logging in. I used the following paramters for the dictionary required: **kMeetingParam\_Username** **kMeetingParam\_UserID** **kMeetingParam\_UserToken** **kMeetingParam\_UserType** **kMeetingParam\_MeetingNumber** **kMeetingParam\_MeetingPassword** The parameters worked, but there is a popup that says, “Waiting for host to start the meeting”. What parameters do I need to pass in order to start a meeting while having the user as the host? **Update** I found out that I need the zoom token and the zoom access token to be the host. What urls do I need to use to fetch them via GET? ---

Hi @rajal.patel, Thanks for the post. It seems like you are using the Join Meeting parameters. Please use the `MobileRTCMeetingStartParam4WithoutLoginUser`, fill in the parameters, and pass to `startMeetingWithStartParam` to start meeting as the host without login. You may refer to the implementation in our demo app: [https://github.com/zoom/zoom-sdk-ios/blob/master/MobileRTCSample/MobileRTCSample/SDKPresenters/how\_to\_start\_join\_meeting/start\_with\_rest\_api\_user/SDKStartJoinMeetingPresenter%2BRestApiWithoutLoginUser.m#L41](https://github.com/zoom/zoom-sdk-ios/blob/master/MobileRTCSample/MobileRTCSample/SDKPresenters/how_to_start_join_meeting/start_with_rest_api_user/SDKStartJoinMeetingPresenter%2BRestApiWithoutLoginUser.m#L41) ```auto MobileRTCMeetingStartParam4WithoutLoginUser * user = [[[MobileRTCMeetingStartParam4WithoutLoginUser alloc]init] autorelease]; user.userType = MobileRTCUserType_APIUser; user.meetingNumber = kSDKMeetNumber; user.userName = kSDKUserName; user.userToken = token; user.userID = kSDKUserID; user.isAppShare = appShare; user.zak = ZAK; param = user; MobileRTCMeetError ret = [ms startMeetingWithStartParam:param]; ``` Hope this helps. Thanks! ---

``` user.userToken = token; ``` this is now not available in Latest iOS SDK v5.0.24433.0616 Please update your Documentation, and sample app as well. ---

Hi @saas, This dialog shows up when the meeting requires registration. When you are scheduling a meeting, if you do not check the following option ![Screen Shot 2020-07-10 at 6.00.25 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/2X/b/b7281749ad06722611fc8749611b862528ccaccb.png) Then this dialog will not show up. Currently there is no interface to fill in the registration info programmatically. Thanks! ---
