**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**

Using Web API (ZoomMtg), host and paticipants video not start at joining meeting. I want to start it.

For example, using instant meeting, created by Zoom API, POST /users/{userId}/meetings, with host\_video=true and participant\_video=true in setting option, I want video start at joining meeting.

**Describe the solution you’d like**  
If The host create the meeting room with settings to start video, start it automatically.

If host notify the participant in advance that host have created the meeting room with the setting to start the video and participants approves it, video of participants will also start automatically.

**Describe alternatives you’ve considered**  
Just as web app prompts to connect Audio at the start of the meeting room, also prompts to start Video.
