**Description**  
We’re in the process of integrating the Zoom SDK into our app. However, we’re encountering a problem: if the admin account used is not a developer account, other participants are unable to join.

**Which macOS Meeting SDK version?**  
v6.1.1.16420

**To Reproduce(If applicable)**  
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a meeting in Zoom app using a different account (\ ***not the account used for development or the account used to sign up here** )
2. Enter the meeting ID and passcode that were created into our app.
3. No join requests sent in the Zoom app

**Device (please complete the following information):**

- Device: Apple MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1)
- OS:Ventura 13.5.1

Hi @CastingApp, to join meetings outside of your own account, your app will need to be reviewed (and be either listed or unlisted) on the Zoom App Marketplace.

The docs on SDK app requirements are here - [Zoom SDK App Requirements](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/distribute/sdk-app-requirements/)

Some background on the requirement:

> **[Meeting SDK apps now require review to join meetings outside their own account](https://developers.zoom.us/changelog/platform/meeting-sdk-policy-announcement/)**
>
> Apps using the Meeting SDK to join Meetings outside their own account will need to go through our App Review process. Review our policy guide and submission process for full details.

Hi @michael.zoom, thanks for replying.

We’re in the process of submitting our app to the Zoom Marketplace, but we’re encountering issues. We can’t find the “From Marketplace” option in the “Adding your app” section, and there’s also no production tab available.
