How can I get token(not record token) for my linux headless bot? For bot I use this sample [meetingsdk-linux-raw-recording-sample](https://github.com/zoom/meetingsdk-linux-raw-recording-sample/tree/main) and General App ---

Hey @emotioniq, here’s instructions on how to generate the token from your Zoom credentials: [Meeting SDK Auth](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/meeting-sdk/auth/#generate-a-meeting-sdk-jwt) One alternative is to use [Recall.ai](https://www.recall.ai/) for your meeting bots instead. It’s a simple 3rd party API that lets you use meeting bots to get raw audio/video from meetings without you needing to spend months to build, scale and maintain these bots. Let me know if you have any questions! ---

Ok, I get JWT token, but my bot don’t connect to meeting. When I start docker container I get next message: ```auto unix:path=/run/dbus/system_bus_socket,guid=09b47105f3fa0147db1da1dd65d7092a Adding user `root' to group `pulse-access' ...

@emotioniq , Your expiry date for your token is in the past. Can you try again with a valid expiry date? Make sure it is more than 30 mins from IAT, and not more than 2 days from IAT. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/f/3/f34c03b849d6b12208ec9584f1e171d90b6c79df.png) ---

@emotioniq , are you joining a meeting which is created by a user in your own account? You cannot join an external meeting without publishing your app. Could you also ensure that the password for the meeting is correct? ---
