Hello,  
I want to create a zoom user anonymously while creating zoom meeting through API if a user does not have an account on zoom.  
Instead of redirecting to zoom sign up page

Hey @shraddhap,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. If you wanted to create a Zoom user under your account, you could use the [Create a User API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/usercreate) but the end user would need to activate their account by clicking a button in their email.

If you want to have a user join a Zoom meeting instantly, then a user should be created for them and activated by them beforehand or they should join the meeting as a guest.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks,  
Max
