Webhook Event JSON Responses

API and Webhooks
1

I’m using ASP .NET Core 2.1 and created a Web API endpoint to receive Webhook event notifications. I first tested using Swagger and Postman, expecting the JSON in the HttpPost body to be formatted according to these documents: https://developer.zoom.us/docs/webhooks/ and https://developer.zoom.us/docs/webhooks-v2/  so everything was working locally.

When I published the application to make my endpoint publicly accessible, the JSON objects I received from the meeting_ended and participant_left events were in a different format. Some events appear to send a uniquely formatted JSON objects based on event type, but I was not able to find any documentation on the Zoom website. Is this documentation available?

JSON for meeting_ended:

**NOTE - For some reason “end_time” is not populated in the meeting_ended event.

{  
    “payload” :{  
       “account_id” :"—REMOVED–",
       “meeting” :{  
          “duration” :60,
          “start_time” :“2018-09-07T03:48:13Z”,
          “timezone” :“America/New_York”,
          “end_time” :"",
          “topic” :“Test in Azure”,
          “id” :“528888737”,
          “uuid” :"—REMOVED–",
          “host_id” :"—REMOVED–"
      } 
   },
    “event” :“meeting_ended”
}

JSON for participant_left

{
    “payload”:{
        “meeting”:{
                “duration”:60,
                 “start_time”:“2018-09-07T03:48:13Z”,
                 “timezone”:“America/New_York”,
                 “end_time”:"",
                 “topic”:“TestinAzure”,
                 “id”:528888737,
                 “uuid”:"—REMOVED–",
                 “host_id”:"—REMOVED–",
                 “participant”:{
                     “leave_time”:“2018-09-07T03:52:05Z”,
                     “user_id”:"—REMOVED–",
                     “user_name”:“AdamGilmore”
                 }
             }
         },
    “event”:“participant_left”
}

Hi Adam, 

Yes we do have documentation available here for Webhooks https://devdocs.zoom.us/docs/subscribing-to-zoom-events-1 and the payloads for webhooks here - https://devdocs.zoom.us/docs/marketplace-reference. 

Thanks

Hi Michael,

Thank you for the links! I don’t see “end_time” as part of the meeting_ended payload. Any reason why this would be blank?

Regards,

Adam

Hi Adam, 

Some of our Webhook payloads don’t include all the meeting information by design and its similar to the meeting API where we don’t include the end_time as well. I can reach out to the Engineers to see if they can include it in a future release. 

Thanks
