**Description**  
I have created OAuth app in zoom and I am trying to develop an application that can delete the cloud recordings after they are moved to a safer location. I also have webhook that triggers when recordings are complete which works fine.

**Error**  
I was able to successfully do this action through post man. I am trying to develop an API in C# which can automate this process. I have client id n secret. But I am unable to authenticate in the API. Can you please provide a way to do it in C#? What exactly is redirect url going? (I created a Post request in controller and deployed to my DEV and added that url as redirect url - please confirm if this is correcT)

**Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?**  
OAuth

**Which Endpoint/s?**  
[https://api.zoom.us/v2/meetings/{meeeting\_id}/recordings?action=trash](https://api.zoom.us/v2/meetings/%7Bmeeeting_id%7D/recordings?action=trash)

Hi, @pavani.kokkiragadda,

Thank you for posting – I am happy to help! To start, can you share the C# script used to authenticate the API? Also, I kindly ask can you share any errors you encounter when running your script?

The redirect will go to the URL that you have provided in the Marketplace App configuration.
