Hello all! I am trying to extract and save the recordings from a user’s account with the Zoom REST API but I am currently receiving a redirect HTTP/1.1 302 response. The endpoint I am using is: https://{mycompany}.zoom.us/rec/download/{downloadlink}?access\_token={JWT token}

And I am doing this through software called Alteryx ([https://www.alteryx.com/](https://www.alteryx.com/)).

Any help will be hugely appreciated!!!

The recordings are protected with a password.

Here’s the full response message I am getting:

Hey @natalia.miteva,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. Please send an email to [developersupport@zoom.us](mailto:developersupport@zoom.us) with a link to this thread. In that email, please include the full download URL that you are using as well as the Meeting ID of the recording.

I’ll debug the issue further there.

Thanks,  
Max

In the interest of keep the solution public, I’ll add what we found here.

Upon reviewing the behavior, I saw that this is expected when using an access\_token to access an authenticated recording download. The Zoom Web Page will redirect to the resource and return a 302 status. The actual resource that you are downloading, returns a 200 OK status.
