We want to understand the use of Zoom at our office but I haven’t found a function on the API that does it. There’s “List of Meetings” but I’m not interested in the scheduled info but in the **use info** (scheduled or not).  
The information I would like is:  
{‘meeting\_id’: ‘’,  
‘timestamp’:’’,  
‘duration’:’’,  
‘participants’:’’, … }  
It’s for analytics purposes by now but not for an app. Is it there a method to do that?  
Thanks!  
Myriam

Hi @myrthings, if you are looking for usage info, I would use our Reports APIs, including the [Meeting Participant Reports](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/reports/reportmeetingparticipants). Let us know if this is what you’re looking for!

Thanks @michael.zoom!  
However, I was looking for a function that gives the data in “Control Pannel -\> Meetings” dashboard. I’ve found it and I can download it for the past year, and it’s enough for me. But it could be awesome if it can be found in the api!  
Thanks! 😊

Hey @myrthings,

Please also see the [Dashboard APIs.](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/dashboards)

Thanks,
