When I follow the instructions from [https://github.com/zoom/sample-app-web](https://github.com/zoom/sample-app-web) I get the URL (localhost:9999) to load up and I have the option to enter my name and meeting id. When I click on Join nothing happens…I dont see any errors from the CLI. ---

Hi @linda.bodie, Can you paste the code within your index.js file? I want to take a look at the ZoomMtg.init method. ---

I just cloned the repo from GitHub and added my keys but this is it: (function(){ ``` var API_KEY = 'my key goes here'; /** * NEVER PUT YOUR ACTUAL API SECRET IN CLIENT SIDE CODE, THIS IS JUST FOR QUICK PROTOTYPING * The below generateSignature should be done server side as not to expose your api secret in public * You can find an eaxmple in PHP here: https://gist.github.com/joshuawoodward/7574df3df9a089e2663582a2cf9f188b */ var API_SECRET = 'my Secret goes here'; document.getElementById('join_meeting').addEventListener('click', function(e){ e.preventDefault(); if(!this.form.checkValidity()){ alert("Enter Name and Meeting Number"); return false; } var meetConfig = { apiKey: API_KEY, apiSecret: API_SECRET, meetingNumber: parseInt(document.getElementById('meeting_number').value), userName: document.getElementById('display_name').value, passwd: "", email: "", leaveUrl: "https://zoom.us", role: 1 }; var signature = ZoomMtg.generateSignature({ meetingNumber: meetConfig.meetingNumber, apiKey: meetConfig.apiKey, apiSecret: meetConfig.apiSecret, role: meetConfig.role, success: function(res){ console.log(res.result); } }); ZoomMtg.init({ leaveUrl: 'http://www.zoom.us', isSupportAV: true, success: function () { ZoomMtg.join( { meetingNumber: meetConfig.meetingNumber, userName: meetConfig.userName, userEmail: meetConfig.email, signature: signature, apiKey: meetConfig.apiKey, success: function(res){ console.log('join meeting success'); document.getElementById('nav-tool').style.display = 'none'; } } ); } }); }); ``` })(); ---

@linda.bodie Can you insert the error function right after the success function so that you can see what error shows up? ``` success: function(res){ console.log('join meeting success'); document.getElementById('nav-tool').style.display = 'none'; }, error: function(res){console.log(res)} ``` ---

thanks @michael_p.zoom but that didn’t seen to yield any better results. I noticed the windows characters ^M all over the file, I ran dos2unix to clean it up. I added your line of code as well…looks the same: ZoomMtg.init({ leaveUrl: ‘[http://www.zoom.us](http://www.zoom.us)’, isSupportAV: true, success: function () { ZoomMtg.join( { meetingNumber: meetConfig.meetingNumber, userName: meetConfig.userName, userEmail: meetConfig.email, signature: signature, apiKey: meetConfig.apiKey, success: function(res){ console.log(‘join meeting success’); document.getElementById(‘nav-tool’).style.display = ‘none’; } error: function(res){console.log(res)} } ); > concurrently “http-server -a localhost -c-1” [0] Starting up http-server, serving ./ [0] Available on: [0] [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080) [0] Hit CTRL-C to stop the server [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /?display\_name=Stephan&meeting\_number=651656156” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /css/bootstrap.css” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /css/react-select.css” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/react.min.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/react-dom.min.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/redux-thunk.min.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/redux.min.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/jquery.min.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/lodash.min.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/av/js\_media.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /js/index.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/webim.js” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/av/audio.encode.wasm” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/av/video.decode.wasm” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” [0] [Mon Nov 19 2018 08:53:46 GMT-0500 (EST)] “GET /lib/av/sharing.wasm” “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86\_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0” ---
