Now if I request Zoom Rest API via fetch in browser, It will blocked by the Same origin policy.

Can I use cors to resolve this question?  
Is exists a place to set allowed origins?

Regards.

Hi @rio.shikelong, all requests to the Zoom API should be authenticated and made from a server-to-server connection. If requests must be initiated client-side, I would suggest using a backend service to communicate with the client from which to make requests to the Zoom API.
