Hey @nate, Is there an error at all? Or do you just get an empty response? Thanks, Tommy ---

Hey @nate, Are you using an OAuth App or JWT App credentials? If OAuth, user level or account level? What scopes do you have? Thanks, Tommy ---

Hi Tommy, I am using an OAuth app with all scopes on. Thanks, Nate ---

Hey @nate, [User level or Account level OAuth app?](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/getting-started/app-types/create-oauth-app#register-your-app) Thanks, Tommy ---

This would be a User level Account OAuth app ---

Hey @nate, I cannot reproduce the issue. I can get a meeting just fine that has a password enabled. Please make sure the access\_token and meeting are owned by the same user. Also if you could send me a video or exact steps to reproduce that would be great! Thanks, Tommy ---

Hi Tommy, Actually I am trying to get meeting from another user who needs to know the full url of the meeting. And I was wondering if we knew the password could make the GET call? ---

Hey @nate, To [get meetings from another user](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingcreate), the user needs to have your [User Level OAuth](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/getting-started/app-types/create-oauth-app#register-your-app) app installed, or be a member of a Zoom Account that has an [Account Level OAuth App](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/getting-started/app-types/create-oauth-app#register-your-app) installed, or have the [JWT App Activated](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/getting-started/app-types/create-jwt-app) for that account. Not sure what you mean by “I was wondering if we knew the password could make the GET call?”. can you please clarify? Thanks, Tommy ---

Hi Tommy, What I am trying to ask is there a way a User that didn’t create a meeting can call the GET meeting endpoint and get a valid response if that meeting has a password. The issue is that when I have user who wants to connect to a meeting my product manager wants them to be able to put in just the meeting number. I need to call the GET meeting endpoint. But, that meeting is password protected. So I could prompt for the password, but is there a way to do that if I have the password. I don’t see that that parameter is available. Thanks, ---

Hey @nate, You do get a meeting password returned from [GET /meetings/{meetingId}](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meeting). Also both the [Web SDK](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/web/essential/start-join-meeting), and Zoom Web Client link support passwords: [https://zoom.us/wc/{meetindID}/join?prefer=0&un={base64encodedName}&pwd={password}](https://zoom.us/wc/%7BmeetindID%7D/join?prefer=0&un=%7Bbase64encodedName%7D&pwd=%7Bpassword%7D) Thanks, Tommy ---

@tommy, how can I set a meeting password when I’m not the meeting owner? (using JWT auth, calling create meeting REST API as myself, and I’m the overall account owner/admin) Is this possible, and am I missing a setting? I’m able to create meetings just fine, for all users in my account, but haven’t been able to set passwords on them. thanks- Paul **POST** /users/{userId}/meetings **Body example:** topic = “a test meeting”, type = 2, start\_time = “2020-05-20T07:15:00Z”, duration = 60, timezone = “America/Los\_Angeles”, password = “Compl3x!”, settings = new { auto\_recording = “cloud” } ---
