Zoom WhiteBoard API

I am using the following API to get the list of whiteboards

https://api.zoom.us/v2/whiteboards

 

It was returning only the latest Whiteboard and not everything. When I went to the web portal to check, I found something strange. the All Whiteboards tab shows only the latest whiteboard and the Recent Whiteboards tab has all the other whiteboards. I have created 5-6 different meetings and opened a whiteboard session in all meetings. In the All Whiteboards tab I see only the latest (Meeting 6) whiteboard and in the Recent WhiteBoards tab I see the remaining whiteboards for Meetings 1-5. 

 

There is no way I can query the recent whiteboards in the API. Can someone please help me to identify what am I doing wrong ?

I am using Zoom to tutor and we are writing collaboratively. Sometimes when neither of us has hit a delete key some of the text disappears. Today apparently the student hit the home button by mistake and three paragraphs we had written together was gone. Is there a setting I can use to keep the work there as I want to share it with the parents after class?

stretching images in whiteboard

Hi,
Is there any way to stretch images on whiteboards? I can resize them but never change proportions and this is frustrating, because they change on each vsdx import.
Thank you,
Bert.

I teach  via Zoom and I use the Zoom Whiteboard every day.
I really like it, but there a some features I would like so see.
- a better shape recognition, like other apps eg. goodnotes, noeful... have. 

- a lasso tool, not only a rectangle

- better pdf import

- dark toolbar when in darkmode

- better writing experience on ipads and with graphics tablets ( pen often gets stuck)

Oh, I almost missed one of the most important points!

- Ability to set e default font and font size

It is really annoying to have to change the font every time I use a new Textbox

I can't use AI on the Zoom whiteboard I created before becoming a premium user. It says upgrade your plan. I upgraded my plan today 🙂 I can use AI on documents but I still can't use it on whiteboards. It still says upgrade your plan for whiteboards. And it doesn't use AI on the new ones I create either. Locked!

A new problem has come up just in the last couple of days that I have had no problems with previously. While using Zoom to tutor, I use both my MacBook and iPad. The iPad is for writing on the Zoom whiteboard. For some reason, when I write on the whiteboard on my iPad, I can see what I am writing until I lift my Apple Pencil at which point what I wrote disappears on my iPad but is visible on my MacBook and for everyone else in the meeting (including my student). As you can imagine, it is quite difficult to write on the whiteboard with my iPad when I cannot see what I have already written. Has anyone experienced this? How can I fix this?

 

I have tried deleting and reinstalling the Zoom app on my iPad, following and unfollowing the creator of the whiteboard, and creating the whiteboard on both my MacBook and on my iPad. None of these have helped.

Help! I'm just looking to copy a style from a shape to apply it to another in my whiteboard. Like any copy Formatting from Word, PPT, etc... 

I have a huge whiteboard with several dozens of shapes already and I just need to change formatting for consistency. Seems it should be simple. Only option from the chatbot was to copy and past another shape... which means also copy pasting all the text in them as well. 

 

Anyone have a quick solution?

disable participant annotation on the whiteboard

How to disable participant annotation on the whiteboard?

It is possible on the old classic whiteboard but not available on new whiteboard.

 

My fun-loving students scribble over my whiteboard.

Fun....but also disruptive ultimately.

Resolved! How many people can I share a whiteboard with (outside of meetings)?

When I share a whiteboard in a meeting, the number of participants for the whiteboard is the same as the maximum number of participants for the meeting, obviously.

 

However:

  1. When I share a whiteboard-link with 500 people and my meeting limit is 300. Would that be possible?
  2. Assuming I can share the whiteboard with an unlimited number of people, how many can edit at the same time (as maximum)? The same as my meeting limit?

Unable to share Whiteboard outside someone else's organization

I am a member of a company (which I will call "Company A") and months ago shared a whiteboard with several Zoom users outside my company, including someone in what I'll call "Company B." Now for some reason it appears that my ability to share new whiteboards is restricted to people within Company B

 

When I click Share, under General Access my options are "Restricted" and "Anyone at Company B." The option for "Anyone with the link" is greyed out because "your admin has disabled external link sharing." My admin at Company A has not disabled external link sharing and is also affected by this problem. It appears whatever Company B's restrictions are have transferred to our accounts as though we are employees at Company B. When I try to add new email addresses it says "Company B has disabled collaboration with users outside your organization." 

 

Again, this is happening on whiteboards that are completely new and have never even been shared with anyone at Company B. It's just me at Company A making a new whiteboard, and then it's says I can't share it with anyone not at Company B. 

 

Tried reinstalling Zoom to no avail.
