Zoom Meeting SDK (React Native)

Use this skill when building React Native apps that need embedded Zoom meeting join/start flows.

Quick Links

Core APIs (Wrapper)

From `@zoom/meetingsdk-react-native` wrapper surface:

• `initSDK(config)`
• `isInitialized()`
• `updateMeetingSetting(config)`
• `joinMeeting(config)`
• `startMeeting(config)`
• `cleanup()`

See: **[Wrapper API](references/wrapper-api.md)**

Critical Notes

• You still need native iOS/Android Meeting SDK dependencies configured.
• `joinMeeting` and `startMeeting` return numeric status/error codes from native layer.
• For host start flow, pass `zoomAccessToken` (ZAK).
• Keep JWT generation on backend, never embed SDK secret in app.
• Current docs note React Native support up to `0.75.4`; Expo is not supported.
