Can I join a Google Meet / Hangout call via an API?


If I have a Google Meet link, how can I programatically join the call? I can get the dial-in phone number and use something like Twilio, but then how can I set the caller ID to have a name?

I've seen various systems join calls with a specified name for a meet / hangout call.

I apologize for the vagueness of the question. I'm not sure how to better ask it - please add comments if you need clarification and I'll happily edit the question.


Solution

  • Looks like you can set caller id once the number is verified, otherwise not https://support.twilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/223180148-Unable-to-Display-a-Business-Name-or-Custom-Text-as-Caller-ID
