Generate OAuth authorization code

Zoom API
#1

Hi Tommy,

I am trying to use API via OAuth . Could you please help me with the below doubt.

  1. Can we generate the OAuth authorization code using PostMan?
    Every time we generate the access token and refresh token, we have to save the refresh token to generate access token again. I don’t want to use refresh token every time and want to check whether we can generate the OAuth authorization code via code or we have to always generate it manually via local test or generate auth url.

Regards
Mike

Hey @contactbymail01,

Yes you can generate the Authorization code using Postman. Follow these instructions:

Hey @contactbymail01,

Sign-in is part of the OAuth flow.

If you want to call the APIs without the Sign in OAuth2 flow, you can use JWT Tokens instead.

Hi @tommy

I think the question being asked is that we would like to test user apps which need OAuth login. It appears that when we try to automate the Oauth request we get into a 302 redirect loop from the server. It appears to be a javascript dependency. Can you explain

Hey @nitin1,

The OAuth flow requires user interaction for security purposes.
