Can someone help me narrow down API call that I can use that will convert users User Type from Basic to Licensed?

I’ve looked under the parameters for PACH Update user’s profile but don’t see that option. Initially I thought it was to just use this payload:

```auto
{
  "feature": {
    "zoom_phone": true
  }
}

```

But that doesn’t work unless user is Licensed.

Appreciate any help.

Hi @nbecirovic , please use this endpoint: [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/methods/#operation/userUpdate](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/methods/#operation/userUpdate)

Edit the `type` field for licensing:
