Description
When I retrieve information about the participants in a meeting, I see network types of Wired, WiFi, and Others. I know about the first two, but am wondering about Others.

Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?
JWT

Which Endpoint/s?
/v2/accounts/{accountId}/metrics/meetings/{meetingID}/participants

How To Reproduce (If applicable)
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

         'https://api.zoom.us/v2/metrics/meetings/'<meeting_id>'/participants?type=past' \
         --header 'Authorization: Bearer '"<auth>"

Hi @Hakkarainen,

Thanks for reaching out about this, and good question. I’m working on getting some more information on this for you, and I’ll follow up shortly.

Thanks!

I have the same question. I see that the in-network type says others and in connection type can be SSL, UDP, or is in blank. But the important question is what other means.

Thanks for the feedback @vanemb8. We are working on adding additional details to our documentation. :slight_smile:
