Question

Is it possible to add an alternative host to Zoom meetings using Zapier?

I am trying to add alternativeHosts when a new zoom meeting is created. 

when i do the test it says that it has been sent to zoom but when i check the details on the zoom account there is still not alternativeHosts set.


I had read about zoom “New Meeting” trigger not working so I have tried using using google calander as well as email to trigger. still not working.

 

Maybe the trigger is not the issue but the zoom itself?

 

either that or im doing something wrong

Hi there @CareER_user,

Unfortunately, it’s not possible to add an alternative host to Zoom at the moment. I’d recommend reaching out to our Support Team to create a feature request on your behalf.

You can reach our Support Team here: https://zapier.com/app/get-help

Hopefully, this helps.

Hi,

I am also facing the same issue. If it’s not possible to add an alternative host to Zoom at the moment then why does it show that option in the action. Please check the screenshot I have attached.

 

Regards,

Adnan

I was able to solve the problem by using API request event in the zoom.

​@adnan-kamili thanks i will try this out. 
 

I had given up and created a manual workflow for junior staff to do. So happy this can be automated.
