Hi,
I am currently building a zoom chat app on a website with an account managed oauth2 app.
Now, I only get the chat channels and not the private chat of the users under the admin (using the zoom api). Is there any way to get all chats?
Thank you in advance,
Pascal Ney

Hi @pascal.ney
Sorry for the late reply here!
This is the expected behavior, you won’t be able to get private chats

Hello, thank you for your reply. I am now encountering another issue. When I fetch channels, and the channel is a chat that was private but a user was added, the name I get from the api looks really weird (Pascal Ney, ja**@** & Pascal Ney). Why is that and is there a way to get the actual name?
