We are trying to create a webinar from zoom API and we are getting 401 Unauthorized response.  
The user has Webinars add-on feature.  
The API point: v2/users/carmen.zdroba@dental-campus.com/webinars

The JSON which we are sending:  
{  
“topic”: “webinar test”,  
“type”: 5,  
“start\_time”: “2022-06-17T07:00:00”,  
“duration”: 60,  
“password”: null,  
“timezone”: “America/New\_York”,  
“settings”: {  
“approval\_type”: 1,  
“audio”: “voip”,  
“host\_video”: true,  
“panelists\_video”: true,  
“alternative\_hosts”: “alernative host email”,  
“auto\_recording”: “cloud”,  
“practice\_session”: true,  
“meeting\_authentication”: false,  
“contact\_email”: “our contact email”,  
“contact\_name”: “our contat mail”,  
“question\_and\_answer”: {  
“enable”: true  
}  
}  
}

Is there something more which we need to do for this?
