Reference skill for Zoom Probe SDK. Use after routing to a preflight workflow when testing browser compatibility, media permissions, audio or video diagnostics, and network readiness before users join.
— the description by Zoom

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

The Zoom Probe SDK skill provides a structured approach to implementing pre-join diagnostic checks. It enables developers to verify browser capabilities, media device permissions, and network readiness before initiating a meeting or video session. By utilizing the Prober and Reporter classes, developers can create custom diagnostic pages that capture structured reports, ensuring users have a stable environment before joining live sessions.

What it does

  • Initializes Prober and Reporter instances for diagnostic workflows.
  • Requests and validates user media permissions and device enumeration.
  • Executes targeted audio and video diagnostic tests.
  • Performs comprehensive network readiness diagnostics.
  • Generates structured diagnostic reports for troubleshooting.
  • Manages resource cleanup including media stream release.

When to use it

  • When building a pre-join diagnostic page for meeting or video applications.
  • When you need to verify browser compatibility for advanced media features.
  • When implementing device certification flows for kiosks or controlled environments.
  • When capturing structured diagnostic data to assist in customer troubleshooting.

Advantages

  • Lightweight implementation requiring no OAuth credentials for core diagnostics.
  • Provides clear readiness gating to improve user experience before joining sessions.
  • Supports structured reporting for easier technical support and debugging.
  • Integrates seamlessly with broader meeting and video SDK workflows.

Usage examples

“How do I start a network diagnostic check using the Probe SDK?”
Initialize the Prober instance and call the startToDiagnose method to begin the network test, then stream the results to your UI.
“What is the correct way to clean up after running diagnostics?”
Ensure you call stopToDiagnose, stopToDiagnoseVideo, releaseMediaStream, and finally the cleanup method to properly free resources.

Install

Documentation by Zoom

Zoom Probe SDK

Background reference for preflight diagnostics on user devices and networks before meeting or session workflows.

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

  1. Initialize Prober / Reporter.

  2. Request media permissions and enumerate devices.

  3. Run targeted diagnostics (diagnoseAudio, diagnoseVideo).

  4. Run comprehensive network diagnostic (startToDiagnose) and stream stats to UI.

  5. Produce final report and apply readiness gates.

  6. 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.

See scenarios/high-level-scenarios.md for details.
