Can an account-level app with recording:read:admin access transcripts for all users in the same Zoom account?

Hi Zoom team,

I’m building an integration that fetches meeting transcripts using the Zoom API. I understand that cloud recordings and transcription must be enabled for the host, and I’ve reviewed the documentation for /meetings/{meetingId}/recordings.

My app is set up as an account-level OAuth app and has the recording:read:admin and meeting:read:admin scopes.

Question:

Can this app access cloud recordings and transcripts for all users in the same Zoom account (organization), assuming proper consent and installation by an account admin?

I want to confirm whether this access is supported or if the host user must explicitly authenticate the app for their own data.

Thanks!

Hi @Shiri ,

If the Zoom account admin grants access to your account-level OAuth app, then your app should be able to access cloud recordings and transcripts for all users in that Zoom organization. The app wouldn’t need to be explicitly authorized by each user within the Zoom organization.
