Hi!  
I thought I had studied the information enough, but I encountered a 401 error.  
I want to create a link to a meeting in the application.  
I make a request to receive a token

> var response = restTemplate.postForEntity(  
> “[https://zoom.us/oauth/token](https://zoom.us/oauth/token)”,request,Map.class);

I receive token (I checked) and make request to create a meeting

> String accessToken = (String) \>Objects.requireNonNull(response.getBody()).get(“access\_token”);

> HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();  
> headers.set(“Authorization”, "Bearer " + accessToken);

> String requestBody = String.format(  
> “{"topic": "New Meeting", "start\_time": "%s", "duration": %d}”,  
> startTime, duration);

> HttpEntity request = new HttpEntity\<\>(requestBody, headers);

> ```
> var response = restTemplate.postForEntity(
> 
> ```

```
            "https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me/meetings", request,Map.class);

```

but in the end I get a 401 error
