Realtime Media Streams (RTMS) allow you to access live media from Zoom, including audio, video, and transcripts facilitated by role-based access controls and disclosures to participants. RTMS uses event-driven architecture to notify your app when media from your users is available. Apps join Meetings with their users, allowing streams to be launched automatically or through user action in an embedded web app. Apps access media through a connection to Zoom’s media servers, displaying the app in a list of apps accessing media in the meeting but not as a participant tile in the Meeting. ---

This is a game changer for real-time integrations. Excited to see how RTMS opens up new possibilities for live media apps without cluttering the participant view. Looking forward to testing it out.
