Zoom Probe SDK
Implementation guidance for Zoom Probe SDK (web) to run preflight diagnostics on user devices and network before meeting/session workflows.
Current npm package verified on 2026-07-10: @zoom/[email protected].
Official docs:
Reference sample:
Routing Guardrail
- Use Probe SDK when the user needs client-side diagnostics and readiness scoring (device/network/browser capability), not meeting/session join.
- If user needs embedded meeting flows, route to ../meeting-sdk/SKILL.md.
- If user needs custom real-time session UX, route to ../video-sdk/SKILL.md.
- If user needs backend orchestration of events/APIs, chain with ../rivet-sdk/SKILL.md, ../oauth/SKILL.md, and ../rest-api/SKILL.md.

Common Lifecycle Pattern
- Initialize
Prober/Reporter. - Request media permissions and enumerate devices.
- Run targeted diagnostics (
diagnoseAudio,diagnoseVideo,diagnoseScreenShare). - Run comprehensive network diagnostic (
startToDiagnose) and stream stats to UI. - Produce final report and apply readiness gates.
- Stop/cleanup (
stopToDiagnose,stopToDiagnoseVideo,releaseMediaStream,cleanup).
High-Level Scenarios
- Pre-join diagnostics page before Meeting SDK join action.
- Support workflow that captures structured report for customer troubleshooting.
- Device certification flow for kiosk or controlled endpoint environments.
- Browser capability gating for advanced media features.
- Consented Chrome/Chromium camera evidence capture with
startCameraDump()for black-frame or flicker investigations. The SDK creates an offline.probe.taror.probe.tar.gz; it does not upload the bundle.
See scenarios/high-level-scenarios.md for details.
Chaining
- Meeting pre-join gate: ../meeting-sdk/web/SKILL.md
- Video session readiness gate: ../video-sdk/web/SKILL.md
- Telemetry/report ingestion backend: ../rivet-sdk/SKILL.md + ../rest-api/SKILL.md
Environment Variables
- See references/environment-variables.md for optional
.envkeys and how to source values.
