Hi @theshinigami, Thanks for reaching out about this. At this time, it’s not possible to create a brand new account from scratch, via API. This is however a great suggestion—if you’d like, you might consider posting this as a feature request here: #feature-requests The only way to create an account via API at this time is if you already have an account and have a Zoom Pro or higher plan with the Master Account option enabled—you could then use [this endpoint](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/accounts/accountcreate) to create a sub account. I hope this helps to clarify, but let me know if you have questions. Best, Will ---
