Hey @rajeevk, Thanks for using the dev forum! This is likely do to some error in the JWT payload. Can you check out this tutorial and see if it helps? [“auth sdk failed” when running zoom sdk demo - #7 by Michael\_Condon](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/auth-sdk-failed-when-running-zoom-sdk-demo/37448/7) Thanks! Michael ---

Hi @Michael_Condon Thank you for your prompt help. I am confused now. I followed the steps you mentioned and for once the error was LastErrorType\_Meeting. Restarted the app and now with the same token, each time it is showing the previous error LastErrorType\_Auth (i.e. AUTHRET\_KEYORSECRETWRONG) again. I have re-generated the sdk secret and changed the iat in payload too. Unfortunately nothing worked. ---

Hey @rajeevk, Interesting. Can you try providing your key and secret to the SDK instead of a JWT? To do this change the AuthContext object to an AuthParam object and hardcode your key and secret before authing. Please note, this should NEVER be done in production. This is only for troubleshooting purposes. > ZOOM\_SDK\_NAMESPACE::AuthParam param; > param.appKey = L"Your key"; > param.appSecret = L"Your secret"; > if (ZOOM\_SDK\_NAMESPACE::SDKERR\_SUCCESS != m\_AuthSDKWorkFlow.Auth(param)) … Thanks!

Hi, I tried changing AuthContext object to AuthParam object. Now it’s failing with “auth sdk failed” message (SDKERR\_INTELNAL\_ERROR). I have uploaded the logs [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ogvTdjzXyaRyRVKkEQPWOwAZsJjG7xSc?usp=sharing). All cases are covered in these logs. ie. LastErrorType\_Meeting then LastErrorType\_Auth and finally SDKERR\_INTELNAL\_ERROR. Please Help. ---

Hey @rajeevk, Have you set the domain and initialized the SDK before calling auth? Thanks! Michael ---

Yes. Domain being selected as [https://zoom.us](https://zoom.us) and SDK is also initialized. Actually I haven’t changed anything on the Demo application. Did you get anything from the logs? ---

Hey @rajeevk, The logs indicate that you passed your key into the JWT field. You need to change AuthContext to AuthParam and pass in your key and secret. Thanks! Michael ---

Hi Michael, One of the logs had AuthParam insted of AuthContext. I am attaching a fresh log again. Please have a look and let us know. ---
