@Michael_Condon @inos.ungaran97 @tommy @michael_p.zoom @will.zoom @MaxM  
I am only able to Create only one host which belongs to developer account.In my project there is coach and learner .If coach joins any meeting he is host of that meeting by default.

But the issue is Only Developer Account is Join as Host.  
Using this endpoint

> **[Create a meeting - Meetings - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingcreate)**
>
> Use this API to create a meeting for a user. For user-level apps, pass the me value instead of the userId parameter.
> 
> A meeting's start\_url value is the...

do we have any solution for it to make coach as host bydefault

Hi @net.developer1job,

You can specify the host of the meeting as any user under your account, by passing their email or user ID in the request URL for the Create Meeting API.

Let me know if this helps to clarify,  
Will

Hi @net.developer1job ,

The host email can be passed directly in the request url, in place of `me`.

Thanks!  
Will

Hi @net.developer1job,

For your `uri` variable, this should be zoomapi.url + ‘users/someone@example.com/meetings’ for example.

Thanks,  
Will

Hey @net.developer1job,

Is that a user that exists under your account? If not, you’ll want to use a published [OAuth App](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/oauth) to make requests on behalf of that user.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks,  
Max
