Zoom Realtime Media Streams
Use this skill when the integration needs real-time meeting or contact-center media as a backend stream. If the workflow needs a visible participant bot, compare against build-zoom-bot and zoom-meeting-sdk-linux before choosing RTMS.
Workflow
- Confirm the source surface: Meetings RTMS, Contact Center voice media, or another documented RTMS stream.
- Decide whether RTMS is sufficient or whether a Meeting SDK bot is required for participant identity, meeting controls, or UI-visible behavior.
- Implement the WebSocket lifecycle first: event subscription, connection validation, media start, heartbeat, reconnect, and shutdown.
- Process media types intentionally: audio, video, screen share, chat, live transcript, and metadata have different payload and timing constraints.
- Design downstream pipelines for buffering, transcription, AI analysis, recording, or tool invocation.
- Debug by isolating app setup, webhook/event delivery, stream authorization, network connectivity, and media payload decoding.
