Unable to pull participants info due to API hitting rate limits

API and Webhooks

Hi,
If i want to capture all sessions for my organization.
How can that be accomplished without hitting the limits each day?

I am currently using PowerBI to import each month data. Statistic we like to get are

  1. All users
  2. All past meetings for each of the user on #1
  3. All participants for each meeting in #2 - https://api.zoom.us/v2/metrics/meetings/uuid/participants?type=past
  4. QoS information for each participant on #3

I am able to pull the Users and Meetings without issues, but the participants information is unable to complete because it always hits the thresholds.

Gathering this information is crucial as it help troubleshooting tickets and gathering trends per location.

Thanks

Hey @eileen, thanks for reaching out and using Zoom!

Are you setting the page_size query param? It defaults to 30, but can be set to get 300 participants.

https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/dashboards/dashboardmeetingparticipants#request-parameters

https://api.zoom.us/v2/metrics/meetings/uuid/participants?type=past&page_size=300

Also here are our rate limits, if you would like to get extended rate limits let me know and I can put you in touch with our team.

Let me know if that helps!

Thanks Tommy

Hello Tommy!

Yes, I am using 300. I would like to get in touch with the team about increasing the rate limits.

Hi Eileen,
I found this thread and wanted to reach out. Iā€™m trying to use PowerBI to import Zoom data but struggling on how to pull the data into the tool. Do you have any tips or advice on how I can get started on this?

Thanks,

Paul

Hey @PabloM,

I suggest creating a Zoom JWT app, to generate a JWT Token, and then call the respective Zoom Report APIs.

Thanks,
Tommy
