What build-zoom-video-sdk-app does

The skill covers the core path for a custom video session: selecting a target platform, issuing Video SDK session tokens on the server, handling permissions, joining and leaving, and wiring audio and video publish-subscribe. It also addresses screen sharing and chat. The target options include web, Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, Linux, Flutter, React Native, Unity, and UI Toolkit.

Platform-specific guides and session-lifecycle notes are included. Add recording, raw media, live transcription, or storage integrations after the basic session flow is stable. Video SDK credentials must stay out of client code because tokens are generated server-side. This skill is not the route for meeting numbers, waiting rooms, host roles, or regular Zoom meeting controls; those belong to Meeting SDK.

What it helps with

  • build a custom video session
  • set up server-side session tokens
  • wire participant media and permissions
  • add screen sharing and in-session chat
  • isolate token, SDK version, or device-permission issues

Example prompts for the agent

  • Build a custom Zoom Video SDK session for a web app with app-owned UI.
  • Set up server-side token generation, participant join and leave, audio/video publish-subscribe, and chat.
  • Investigate a browser permission or media-device issue in an Android Video SDK app.

# Build Zoom Video SDK App

Use this skill when the user needs a custom video session rather than a real Zoom meeting. If the user needs meeting numbers, waiting rooms, hosts, or normal Zoom meeting controls, route to Meeting SDK.

## Workflow

1. Confirm product fit: Video SDK is for custom sessions with app-owned UX and lifecycle.
2. Choose the target platform: web, Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, Linux, Flutter, React Native, Unity, or UI Toolkit.
3. Validate auth: generate Video SDK session tokens server-side and keep SDK credentials out of client code.
4. Implement join, media permissions, audio/video publish-subscribe, screen share, chat, and leave before advanced media features.
5. Add custom layouts, raw media, recording, live transcription, or storage integrations only after the session lifecycle is stable.
6. Debug by isolating token generation, SDK version, browser isolation, platform permissions, media device behavior, and entitlement limits.
