Hi! Currently, I’m using zoom’s web client SDK to call but when I am the first access to the meeting room, I can’t see my video even though I enabled video and grant camera permission to the website. It always show black screen

Hey @noman777, the WebClient is a view-only client, please see https://github.com/zoom/sample-app-web/blob/master/README.md 19

 

It allows participants to view a zoom meeting and join by audio, it doesn’t provide video/screen sharing from the participant side. You can look into the Dev Forum thread here
