Is it possible for a bot to start recording before the host joins?

Hello all!

I schedule meetings through the API, and under the platform I use, I have a bot which joins the meeting and records it, as well as generate transcripts and etc...

I have configured the permissions so that the host does not need to approve the recording request under my account configs, also I have allowed the guests to join before host in the API config

The problem is, the bot can't start recording unless I am logged in as the host in the meeting, even though it was configured to always allow recording. Is there a way around that?

Thanks in advance!

Hello @Lucas_Tbx 

I do not think we can answer that question here on this platform. We have another platform called the dev forum where you can ask our development team direct questions like this. The site is https://devforum.zoom.us/. Let me know if they were helpful with your query.
