Hi,

I have created a **Server-to-Server OAuth** apps however, in the last **Activation** page I get the statement **Your app is ready for activation** but I am unable to click the **Activate your app** button.

I cannot find any documentation to help me establish what I have done wrong. I’m hoping somebody can point out my oversight.

Hi @technical.integratio ,

Have you filled out all the info under Basic Information and Developer Contact Information? And you see the “Activate your App” button but you are unable to click it? It appears like this:

Is the button greyed out?

Let us know!

@technical.integratio,  
Welcome to the Developer Forum, @technical.integratio! As a sanity check, did you complete all the required fields? You have to select at least one scope in order to activate the [‘Server-to-Server OAuth’ App](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/activating-server-to-server-oauth-app/71743). Down below is documentation on the process of subscribing to OAuth Scopes:

> **[OAuth Scopes](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/oauth/oauth-scopes/)**
>
> The Zoom Developer Platform is an open platform that allows third-party developers to build applications and integrations upon Zoom’s video-first unified communications platform.

Hi,

Thank you for replying. Yes, fields filled out and all boxes (circles) have a tick in them apart from the last **Activation** section. And yes, I see the same as your image but the button is pale ‘greyed out’.

That’s strange! If you have all fields filled out, and boxes checked then you should be able to activate it. **Please verify that the administrator for your Zoom account enabled the view and edit permissions for the Server-to-Server OAuth app.**

If all of the above is verified, then I’d suggest submitting a support ticket [here](https://zoom.us/zendesk/sso?return_to=https://support.zoom.us/hc/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000996591), our support team will be able to take a closer look at what may be happening.
