**Description**  
The deauthorization documentation still mentions that sending a data compliance acknowledgement is mandatory.  
This is confusing.

**Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?**  
OAuth

**Which Endpoint/s?**  
Deauthorization event / data compliance api

**Additional context**

> [@Data Compliance API Deprecated](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/data-compliance-api-deprecated/51768):
>
> Description When looking the [POST /oauth/data/compliance](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/data-compliance/data-compliance/compliance) endpoint documentation, I noticed that it is marked as deprecated. I didn’t find any information on what should be used instead of this endpoint. Is it correct that the POST /oauth/data/compliance endpoint is deprecated and if so, what should be used instead?

I am facing the same issue. Can someone from Zoom explain clearly what the deauth and compliance requirements are and what are the correct steps to follow to ensure that an app is compliant?

Hi @shrey.cha @remco.oosten,

Our apologies for any confusion—we’re working on making this clearer.

To confirm: it is no longer required to call our deauthorization endpoint when a user/account uninstalls your app.

Let me know if you have any questions about this. Thanks!  
Will

So, is it only required to delete the user data? is that correct?
