Bad request when getting OAuth code from iframe

API and Webhooks
1

My application calls the Zoom API get results with an iframe and it worked perfectly until this morning.

It now keeps redirecting me to the Bad Request error page when I try to retrieve the code from https://zoom.us/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=XXXX.

I can get it working if I access it through a stand alone tab, but I have to go through the “Grant Authorization” process everytime I call the api. I remember that I only had to grant access once and the page would give me the code directly from then on.

I need the iframe access method to keep the application automatic.
Is the new update or some settings with my application/account causing the problem?

Hey @pthkit, thanks for posting and using Zoom!

In the meantime, I believe the proper flow would be to authorize the user once, and then store the access_token and refresh_token. Docs here:

Thanks,
Tommy

Thanks Tommy!

I should have read the docs till the end before I finished the app. I am using the proper flow right now and everything works fine. Thanks a lot!
