Hi there,

Our company has our own app for teachers and students, in our app teachers can teach students in meeting, but after meeting, they need live chat like zoom team chat to share some information. My question is: there is any zoom sdk or api can do this in our app ?

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Hi @jiayuan,

At this time, there is no way to create a chat interaction outside of a zoom Video SDK session. Please see our feature request section and feel free to submit this need there!

You can, however, create a button to essentially tear down the UI of the video meeting space, and maintain the video SDK session so that you can use the chat feature. So you’d still have a session running, but without a video conferencing space and with just chat.

Thanks,
