Zoom API for real-time access to Q/A of a live webinar

API and Webhooks
1

Is there an API to interact with the stream of questions and answers in a live webinar? I see the API to get the list of questions and answers from a past webinar, but I’m looking for the possibility to insert a question while the webinar is live. Use case: we have some people without the Zoom client that are watching a webinar via YouTube and we want to provide the ability for them to put questions into the Q/A stream for the webinar moderator to see.

Hey @pmurray,

We do not have a real time Q/A api for webinars.

Your best bet as of now is to have the users join the webinar as attendees and use the Q/A feature.

Thanks,
Tommy

Is there a plan to implement an API endpoint for managing questions in webinars? Seems like it would be a logical feature to add.

Hey @samly,

This is something we plan to do in the long term.

Thanks,
