**Description**  
Hi, i am trying to create a meeting using server to server oauth app but for some reason I am only able to create meeting for 1 user account, I am only able to set schedule\_for for only 1 email in my account, I have around 7 emails in my account, creating a meeting for any other email gives this error: You cannot schedule a meeting for {email}

I have tried to do everything, all the permissions are correct and I am able to create a meeting but not sure why not for all emails in my account

**Error?**  
{

“code”: 3000,

“message”: “You cannot schedule a meeting for {email}”

}

Hey @Saim  
Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the Zoom Developer Forum.  
If you want to use the schedule\_ for field, make sure that each user in your account grants you the ability to schedule meetings on their behalf.  
You will find that in your settings \> Meeting tab \> Other \> Schedule privilege.
