using “POST /users” I am able to add a new user to the zoom account. I use the server-to-server oAUTH. The user does receive an invitation email (like the API spec says).

So, when I create the user using “createUser” API the user does get the invitation.

The invitation has “XXX has created the zoom account for you” in the body of the email. I am trying to understand where this XXX is coming from.

My first thought was the setting I had with my client credentials in the market place. But this seems to be not it unless its cached.

Any pointers will help.  
Thanks,  
Swapna

I had to transfer the ownership on th e"APP" and change email address on it. This resolved it.

Thanks!
