Avoiding Waiting room and how to use passcode instead with API??

[nailedit]

Hi,

I've really tried everything, but it's still not working. I did the following steps—could you please check if I missed anything?

1. I’m using the Pro plan and I want to create a meeting via API where two other participants can join without me being present.
2. To achieve this, I disabled the Waiting Room in my Account Settings.
3. I understand that I must enable either a passcode, authentication, or a waiting room. So, I set up my API configuration as follows and wrote a Python function accordingly:
   
   
   def create_meeting(access_token, row😞

       url = f"https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me/meetings"

   
   

       headers = {

           'Authorization': f'Bearer {access_token}',

           'Content-Type': 'application/json'

       }

   
   

       start_time = row['meeting_date']

       start_time_iso = start_time.strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S")  # ISO 8601 format

       alternative_hosts = ",".join([row["email1"], row["email2"]])

       data = {

           "topic": f"{row['type']} with {row['nick1']} and {row['nick2']}",

           "default_password" : True,

           "password" : "123456",

           "type": 2,  # reserved meeting

           "start_time": start_time_iso,

           "duration": int(row['time']),  #by minutes

           "scheduled_for": row["user1_email"],

           "settings": {

               "join_before_host": True,

               "jbh_time" : 0,

               "mute_upon_entry": True,

               "waiting_room": False,

               "auto_recording": "cloud",  

               "recording_audio_transcription": True,

               "allow_multiple_devices":True,

               #"alternative_hosts" : alternative_hosts,

               #"alternative_hosts_email_notification" : True,

               "authentication_exception" : [

                   {

                       "email" : "***********",

                       "name" : "myname"

                   }

               ],

           },

           "calendar_type" : 2

       }

       response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=data)

       if response.status_code == 201:

           return response.json()  

       else:

           raise Exception(f"Failed to create meeting: {response.json()}")
   
   
   Anyone who can solve this??
