Hi @yogesh.kumar,

Thanks for reaching out about this, and happy to help.

If you haven’t yet, you’ll first need to create a JWT app under your account following these steps.

Once you have a JWT app created under your account, you can follow these steps to retrieve the token to authenticate your API requests with:

  1. Navigate to the Zoom Marketplace while logged in to the account that is associated with your JWT app

  2. Once logged in, click on your JWT App from the Manage page

  3. From your App’s page, click on the App Credentials tab:

  4. 716×489 38.3 KB

  5. Click on the View JWT Token dropdown

  6. Copy this token and use this to authenticate your API requests (auth type: “Bearer Token”)

Let me know if this helps!

Thanks,
Will

Hi @yogesh.kumar,

To clarify, JWT apps and their credentials are tied to an account. A Zoom account can only have 1 JWT app, and this app will have admin level permissions—meaning that the JWT token you generate will be valid for accessing/managing data under any user on your account.

It’s not possible to create a JWT app under someone else’s Zoom account.

Let me know if this helps to clarify—thanks!
