Question
People commonly ask on the Zoom Developer Forum:
How can I access the raw audio files from Zoom IQ (Revenue Accelerator) meetings via API? The JSON only returns a URL to the audio, not the audio data itself—how do I get the actual file?
Answer
Zoom’s APIs won’t embed audio binary in the JSON response. Instead, they provide a download URL for the media.
To retrieve the actual audio file:
- Use the relevant conversation/list endpoint to obtain the meeting/conversation metadata, which includes a download_url for the audio.
- Make a follow-up HTTP request to that download_url to download the audio file.
