Which API type to use and simple Querying?

API and Webhooks

Description
I am wondering what is the simplest way to query an active zoom meeting to get the participants list. I write my code primarily in vb.net. I am writing a windows Forms application that I want to get access to these features (while zoom is running) without having to implement the sdk into my program (if it is even possible for vb). My primary goal is to simply access the database for an active zoom meeting.

And yes, I already read through the different App Types to consider, but need some help for which is best for my application.

Thank you in advance for any help,

Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?
I do not know, that is why i am asking the question. :slight_smile: :smiley:

Hey @eengineerh,

JWT should be used if the meeting you want to get the participants list is hosted by you or your Zoom users.

OAuth should be used if the meeting you want to get the participants list will be an external Zoom meeting not hosted by you or your Zoom users.

Once you decide which authentication method you’d like to use, simply call the List Meeting Participants endpoint:

Let me know if you have additional questions! :slight_smile:

Thanks,
Tommy
