Hey @aruna1997 Thanks for posting on the Zoom Devforum! I am still learning, but I will try my best to help answer your question. 🙂 Checkout this related thread that may have the answer you are looking for: > [@Not able to get participants list after ending the meeting](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/-/5300): > > Hi team, I am not able to get the participants lists after ending the meeting. If there is only one participant at a time. API: report/meetings/{meetingId}/participants However if there are two unique participants then the API returns the result. Is there any way through API to get the list of participants even if there is only one participant. If this thread did not help, please let us know by replying back here and someone from the Developer Relations team will get back to you shortly. Thanks, DeveloperBot ---

This was the error I got Invalid access token, does not contain scopes: [report:read:admin, zms:report:read]”. But I don’t see any report scope in oAuth configuration to enable. ---

Hi Tommy, Thanks for your time. RAFIKI-AI is a oAuth App that gets permission to access meetings and recordings. I am able to get the meetings and recordings, but I also need participants, not sure how to get it. How do I make this app shareable within our circle for unit testing. Thanks ---

User doesn’t need to register to participate in the meeting and our User App is registered under a pro license account. This is what I tried /report/meetings/${meetingId}/participants. I got Invalid access token, does not contain scopes: [report:read:admin, zms:report:read]”. I don’t know where to enable this scope, I don’t see any scope to enable. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/2X/7/7c827f8276196b916756c84b2fcb0aeca2256d36.png) ---

Hey @aruna1997, For user level OAuth apps, you can use the [Get Past Meeting Participant endpoint](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/pastmeetingparticipants). Thanks, Tommy ---
