**Description**  
Is there a way I can limit the fields I want returned from an API call?

For example, let’s say I only wanted audio\_input [bitrate, latency, jitter] but nothing else.  
“/v2/metrics/meetings/[meeting\_id]/participants/qos&type=past”

I am trying to limit the data since there is no way I can get just average metrics for a single participant.

Example object from the call (this X # of Minutes):  
{“date\_time”:“2020-08-06T20:00:00Z”,“audio\_input”:{“bitrate”:"",“latency”:"",“jitter”:"",“avg\_loss”:"",“max\_loss”:""},“audio\_output”:{“bitrate”:"",“latency”:"",“jitter”:"",“avg\_loss”:"",“max\_loss”:""},“video\_input”:{“bitrate”:“908 kbps”,“latency”:“51 ms”,“jitter”:“8 ms”,“avg\_loss”:“0.0%”,“max\_loss”:“6.4%”,“resolution”:“640\*360”,“frame\_rate”:“22 fps”},“video\_output”:{“bitrate”:"",“latency”:"",“jitter”:"",“avg\_loss”:"",“max\_loss”:"",“resolution”:"",“frame\_rate”:""},“as\_input”:{“bitrate”:"",“latency”:"",“jitter”:"",“avg\_loss”:"",“max\_loss”:"",“resolution”:"",“frame\_rate”:""},“as\_output”:{“bitrate”:"",“latency”:"",“jitter”:"",“avg\_loss”:"",“max\_loss”:"",“resolution”:"",“frame\_rate”:""},“cpu\_usage”:{“zoom\_min\_cpu\_usage”:“1%”,“zoom\_avg\_cpu\_usage”:“4%”,“zoom\_max\_cpu\_usage”:“8%”,“system\_max\_cpu\_usage”:“33%”}},

Hey @kishan.patel,

Unfortunately there is no way to limit the response.

Feel free to add this as a feature request here: #feature-requests

That being said, we do have a QOS endpoint for a single participant:

> **[Get Meeting Participant QOS - Dashboards - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/dashboards/dashboardmeetingparticipantqos)**
>
> Retrieve the quality of service for participants from live or past meetings. This data indicates the connection quality for sending/receiving video, aud...

Thanks,  
Tommy
