The most common need for using ZoomAPI is transcription. Since Zoom allows you to record meetings, it is often used in combination with apps that download the recording files via ZoomAPI for transcription and even summarizing the text into meeting minutes.
Another prominent use is setting up and managing meetings through the API. By using ZoomAPI, you can automate the creation and invitation of meetings and webinars, thus automating daily web conferencing tasks. You can automatically set up regular meetings or trigger webinar invitations based on changes in customer information status using ZoomAPI.
