I am currently developing a web application using the Zoom Web SDK. My goal is to allow users to test their audio and video settings while they are in the waiting room before joining a meeting. I understand that in the Zoom desktop application, users have the ability to preview and test their audio and video, but I have not found this functionality within the Web SDK.

From my research and the documentation, it seems that this feature is not currently available in the Web SDK. Specifically, I came across several discussions and feature requests on the forum, which indicate that this functionality is not supported.

Could you confirm if the Zoom Web SDK does indeed lack the ability to test audio and video in the waiting room? If so, are there any plans to add this feature in future releases? In the meantime, what are the recommended best practices for implementing a pre-meeting check for audio and video within a custom web application?

Hi @syedshahbaz, welcome, thanks for posting!

While the Meeting SDK does have a function to [join a test meeting](https://marketplacefront.zoom.us/sdk/meeting/web/functions/ZoomMtg.joinTest.html), we are working on additional options to provide network and user media checks.

Please watch our [changelog](https://developers.zoom.us/changelog) for updates. 🙂
