Will we soon be able to send messages in the meeting chat?

Zoom Apps

Hi,
We’re currently developing a Zoom application using the Zoom SDK. We’re wondering why it’s not possible to send a message in a meeting chat with the SDK?

I see that there’s a method for sending a chat in the meetingSdk but not in the app sdk. Is there a reason for this? Do you know if a method will soon be added to allow you to send a chat message?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Currently, we don’t have a method to send a chat message from a Zoom App as it is not seen as a user in the meeting whereas an SDK app may be presented as a bot user.

However, if you are using persistent meeting chat then you can send a chat message to that channel using our REST API:

Hi Max,
Thank you for your reply.
It seems clearer now.
