Hey @pedro.zumpano, thanks for posting and using Zoom!

May I ask the meeting id you are trying to end?

Thanks,
Tommy

I got the same problem. Even though the meeting has ended and I received a meeting ended event from my webhook but the status won’t change to ended but it’s still ‘waiting’. I tried to call the API to update the meeting status but it didn’t change either. The meeting id is 461326362

Hey @trongtin6495,

Is this an instant meeting or recurring meeting by any chance? If so, that would explain the waiting status.

Thanks,
Tommy

Hi @tommy

No, the meeting type is 2 so it’s not a recurring meeting.

i tryed many, in my case all are instant meetings and after a few minutes (with no one on the meeting) the meetings ends automatically, so its difficult send to you one specific meetingid.

one sample can be this one (but already ended) 139674061

Hey @pedro.zumpano,

If it is an instant meeting, it will always say waiting unless it is in progress.

Thanks,
Tommy

Hey @trongtin6495,

Are you using your personal meeting ID for scheduled meetings?

Thanks,
Tommy

@tommy
You mean user ID? I use this API to create scheduled meeting /users/{userId}/meetings and meeting type is set to 2.

Hey @trongtin6495,

I mean personal meeting ID.

Let me know if you are using it for scheduled meetings.

@tommy

No, I’m not using it.

Hey @trongtin6495,

.type = MeetingModel.MeetingType.ScheduledMeeting,
.start_time = FechaHora.ToString(“yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss”),
.topic = Topico,
.timezone = “America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires”
})

after finish de meeting
Get:
RestRequest request = new RestRequest(“Meetings/” + meetingID, Method.GET);
request.AddHeader(“authorization”, token);
IRestResponse<List> response = client.Execute<List>(request);
MeetingModel meet = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(response.Content);
return meet;
