Download and install the Meeting SDK for Linux.
Documentation and developer support is limited for the Meeting SDK for Linux.
Prerequisites
To get started, you need
- A Zoom account. If you don't have one, sign up at https://zoom.us/signup .
- A device running Linux CentOS 9 or Ubuntu 22 distribution on Intel or AMD X64 CPU.
As of version 7.0.0, the Meeting SDK for Linux only supports Ubuntu 20 (u20) and later, and also supports 64-bit ARM Linux architecture.
Running the Meeting SDK for Linux in a cross-architecture emulated environment can cause significant performance degradation and unreliable behavior. QEMU/Rosetta emulation is not a supported or dependable way to run the Meeting SDK for Linux. Any emulated environment should match the host architecture.
