Hey,

We are trying to investigate all Zoom Web SDK restrictions to better position our integration.

Could you help me to clarify the following:

1. How many people can attend a meeting using the Web SDK?
2. Can we use [https://zoom.us/webinar](https://zoom.us/webinar) through Web SDK?

Thanks,  
Anton

Hey @Sitting, happy to help!

The limits on meeting participants depend on which plan you have. Here is our pricing page which lists the participant limits: [Plans & Pricing for Zoom One | Zoom](https://zoom.us/pricing)

The Web SDK can be used to join webinars, not start them. More info here:

Thanks,

Hey Tommy,

As a part of our solution we use Rest API to start meetings. So, if we create a webinar under a licence that supports webinars using Rest API and then use Web SDK to join it, everything will work, won’t it?

Thanks,  
Anton

Hey @Sitting,

Correct, that will work! 🙂

Thanks,
