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](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/build/jwt-app). 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](https://marketplace.zoom.us/user/build) 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](https://marketplace.zoom.us/user/build) page 3. From your App’s page, click on the **App Credentials** tab: 4. 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! Will ---

Hi @yogesh.kumar, That’s correct. To create a user, you can use this API endpoint: > **[Create Users - Users - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/usercreate)** > > A Zoom account can have one or more users. Use this API to add a new user to your account. > Prerequisites: > > Pro or higher plan > Scopes: user:write:admin u... Hope this helps! Best, Will ---
