Hello, We are testing the web sdk API. The zoom host manager, is not able to assign users that uses the web client SDK to breakout rooms. The selector only shows users that users the app / desktop software. It’s a limitation or there is something that we can do? Thank you ---

Same issue here. With version 1.8.1 and with version 1.8.3. If an user joins the meeting with the zoom link (and start the web variant) they are visible. Cannot figure out why. Cannot find any variable in the init or join regarding the breakout rooms… ---

Hello! Can you already tell, when you are going to roll out the breakout rooms for the Web SDK? We have an online event next week scheduled and everything is already setup for this on a landing page - except the breakout rooms… Any chance it is going live during the weekend? Or is it possible to use a beta? All the best, Benjamin from [www.bildwerk.tv](http://www.bildwerk.tv) ---

Hey @bildwerk, Thank you for reaching out to Zoom Developer Support. Good question! The breakout rooms feature is planned to be added with the release of version 1.9.0 in early 2021. If I hear of early access or beta opportunities I’ll be sure to let you know. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Max ---
