I successfully get token and then make a GET call for a users list. with a token supplied by sucessful oauth token request def get\_user\_list(url, authorization\_header, status=‘active’, page\_size=‘30’): post\_data = { ‘status’:status, ‘page\_size’:page\_size } response = requests.get( url=url, headers=authorization\_header, params=post\_data ) However I get a response saying Account does not enabled REST API. I do not see such setting in the account settings. authorization\_header = ‘Authorization’: ‘Bearer ey\*\*\*\*\*\*’ url = ‘[https://api.zoom.us/v2/users](https://api.zoom.us/v2/users)’ response = … reason: ‘Bad Request’ request: \ status\_code: 400 text: ‘{“code”:200,“message”:“Account does not enabled REST API.”}’ url: ‘[https://api.zoom.us/v2/users?status=active&page\_size=30](https://api.zoom.us/v2/users?status=active&page_size=30)’ any idea on the cause of this. ---

@jason.bowsher Hope you will be fine. What type of account is used while authorizing with OAuth? ---

We get the access token with the following code. (No proxies used).

Actually i tried different variants. Regarding documentation [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/methods/#operation/meetingCreate](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/methods/#operation/meetingCreate) “userId – the user ID or email address of the user” We got only one user on our Pro account, so i tried pass email and account number from /profile page (i want just create meeting in this account) Nothing works. ---

Found a resolution for this issue. the zoom\_api\_helper installed via pip works. I think it may be that you need to use the token in the same request session rather than passing it to a newly created session. Would be useful to confirm if this was the issue. ---

By session, do you mean a new separate request? Your access token should work as long as it’s unexpired. This behavior is unexpected. ---

By session I mean a request.session and in this same instance do the get token and then get function as the token is set in the session. You can download the zoom\_api\_helper code from pypi and see this. ---

HI @HelloMusicFamily Please, take a look into our Docs here where you will find valuable information on how to use OAuth with Zoom [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/oauth/#step-2-request-access-token](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/oauth/#step-2-request-access-token) It looks like you are creating the token with client credentials that are tied to Oauth applications. Are you trying to use a Server-to-Server Oauth app? In that case, you want to use account\_credentials [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/build/server-to-server-oauth-app/#use-account-credentials-to-get-an-access-token](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/build/server-to-server-oauth-app/#use-account-credentials-to-get-an-access-token) Hope this helps, Elisa ---

Recien hoy me me tope con este error , efectivamente veo que hay que migrar a authentication to server-to-server OAuth 2.0 , solo quiero agregar que en el apartado de activación en zoom app marketplace , fue posible tener una extensión hasta el 10 de noviembre del 2023. ---
