Description
I cannot cancel meetings through the zoom_rooms api when the meeting is not scheduled for today.
Meetings scheduled for today can be canceled, all others cannot.

No error message

Which Endpoint/s?

How To Reproduce (If applicable)
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Schedule a meeting with the zoom rooms api that is not today
cancel the meeting, it doesn’t work
if the meeting happens today then the cancel api call does work.
Thank you for reaching out about this—happy to help take a closer look.
To clarify, when you attempt to cancel a meeting for a future date, are you getting an error message? Is it possible to share the request/response you’re seeing when you try this? This will be helpful to further investigate.
The schedule worked, the cancel didn’t. It still exists in the calendar (google calendar) and when I check with the zoom api for this room I can see the meeting.
So far our team has had some trouble reproducing this. As a next step, is it possible for you to schedule/cancel a test meeting again and provide us the timestamps of the request once more, so that we can check our logs for the request?
Thanks for following up on this, and apologies for the delay. I’m following up with our Engineering team on this and hope to have an update for you shortly.
I’m still waiting to hear back from our Engineering team on their investigation—I will follow up with you here as soon as I have an update. Thanks again for your patience, and our apologies for the delay.
Thanks again for your patience while we looked into this.
After some internal investigation, our team confirmed that we don’t currently support canceling meetings that aren’t scheduled for the same day. I realize this can seem a bit counter-intuitive, and can appreciate how this is an area for improvement.
While I’ve shared this feedback with our team, I also encourage you to submit a feature request for the ability to cancel meetings that aren’t same-day. You can do so here: #feature-requests
Would you then at least update the documentation so other people don’t have to waste multiple days trying to figure out why a meeting can’t be cancelled ?
Thanks for the feedback, and great point. I will work with our team to make this clearer in our documentation, and appreciate your raising this with us.
