Is there an api for creating and logging in a user?

The use case is to maintain a user database separately, so that the users don’t need to log into the zoom meeting since they have already logged into my site/server.

Hi @zeusstl, much of the functionality you’re looking for here is best handled using one of our SDKs, where you will have broader access to user login statuses. When you are creating a user, their account does need to be activated. Reference this API doc for more information: [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/userstatus](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/userstatus)
