Hey everyone We are working to get the [Zoom Web Client](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/214629443-Zoom-web-client) and [Zoom Web SDK](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/web) back online. Please keep up with our status page for detailed updates: [status.zoom.us](http://status.zoom.us/) > [@Developer impacting changes during COVID-19](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/developer-impacting-changes-during-covid-19/8930): > > [Developer impacting changes during COVID-19](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/developer-impacting-changes-during-covid-19/8930)Zoom Developer Documentation Survey Please take a few minutes to fill out the [Zoom Developer Docs survey](https://forms.gle/mHCNSZuWfsNDcyMc8) and let us know how we can assist you better with our docs. Your input will be invaluable in improving our documentation. Delayed responses by Zoom staff on developer forum due to volume of posts. Expect a reply in 24 hours on weekdays. What does this mean? During these tough times, we are seeing a massive increase in demand for our services. To … * * * The best workaround is to use the Zoom Desktop / Mobile app. Just include the Zoom meeting join url (`https://zoom.us/j/meetingID`) on your site rather than showing the websdk / iframe. Clicking on the join url will open the Zoom meeting in the Zoom app. Apologies for the inconvenience, Tommy ---

This is not a workaround when you have lots of additional features on your site, when the students have laptops they can’t install software on, and when you have large amount of public users who are expecting to get into meetings without downloading anything. Is there a real timeline on this, so that we know what we have to cancel, reschedule, and find an alternative for? Are we talking hours, days, weeks? ---

May I suggest, due to the large number of existing installations, some of which might not even be aware of this, that you put in place redirects that extract the meetingID from the SDK querystring and redirect to the [zoom.us/j/[MeetingID]](http://zoom.us/j/%5BMeetingID%5D) URL? That would immediately restore service to those who are unaware of why their clients cannot connect. Since you would know the host’s identity by the meetingID, you could then notify the host of the issue as well. ---

Please share more information about what that means. We are currently facing the issues that when trying to join through browser the user gets forwarded to the signup screen instead. Is this because of the maintenance mode? We have been trying to debug this issue until we found this message. So if this is the case please remove all “join from browser” links and state clearly that currently the app installation is required temporarily. Otherwise we run the risk of losing frustrated customers who wanted to join a video consultation. ---

Hello, Would it be such an effort for you (as a company i mean) to update your status dashboard and indicate that this problem has never been fixed yet and the status is still down ?
