**Description**  
Hello,  
We are developing an application in ionic that the api key and secret key are dynamic.

We want to initialize the Zoom SDK in a view, but we receive this error:

**[Error]: Failed due to illegal SDK Key or Secret.**

I use this keys in web sdk and work perfect.

I use the next code.

```
  activeZoom(idmeeting, password) {
    console.log('api_key', this.api_key)
    console.log('secret_key', this.secret_key)
    this.zoomService.initialize(this.api_key, this.secret_key)
  .then((success: any) => this.joinMeeting(idmeeting, password))
  .catch((error: any) => console.log(error));
  }

```

We use Ionic 5, angular 9 and the latest Zoom SDK

Thanks for your help.

Hi [fitcloud](https://devforum.zoom.us/u/fitcloud),

Thanks for using Zoom SDK. The Ionic SDK is based on Android SDK and iOS SDK so it is expecting an SDK key&secret rather than API key & secret. Please have a try with the SDK key & secret.

Thanks!
