UI API called on a background thread when I start screen sharing

Hi, I have noticed some info logs while call those methods (but only for first call):
- (ZoomSDKError)startMonitorShare:(CGDirectDisplayID)monitorID
- (ZoomSDKError)startAppShare:(CGWindowID)windowID

The logs say us that some UI stuff ([NSWindow windowNumber] and [NSApplication windows]) isn’t use in the main thread.

Logs example:
