npx skills add anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins --skill build-zoom-meeting-sdk-app
Reference skill for Zoom Meeting SDK. Use after routing to a meeting-embed workflow when implementing real Zoom meeting joins, platform-specific SDK behavior, auth and join flows, waiting room issues, or meeting bot patterns.
npx skills add anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins --skill build-zoom-meeting-sdk-app
Background reference for embedded Zoom meetings across web, mobile, desktop, and Linux bot environments. Prefer build-zoom-meeting-app or build-zoom-bot first, then route here for platform detail.
Embed the full Zoom meeting experience into web, mobile, desktop, and headless integrations.
join_url links.join_url is not a Meeting SDK join payload.Need help with OAuth or signatures? See the zoom-oauth skill for authentication flows.
Need pre-join diagnostics on web? Use probe-sdk before Meeting SDK init/join to gate low-readiness devices/networks.
Start troubleshooting fast: Use the 5-Minute Runbook before deep debugging.

Never expose SDK Secret in client code. Generate signatures server-side:
Global * { margin: 0; } breaks Zoom's UI. Scope your styles:
If toolbar falls off screen, scale down the Zoom UI:
Client View takes over full page. Hide your UI:
Meeting SDK provides Zoom's UI with customization options:
| View | Description |
|---|---|
| Component View | Extractable, customizable UI - embed meeting in a div |
| Client View | Full-page Zoom UI experience |
Note: Unlike Video SDK where you build the UI from scratch, Meeting SDK uses Zoom's UI as the base with customization on top.
