Hi @gms, To clarify, are you trying to generate a token to call one of our API endpoints, are are you trying to generate a token for use with the Android SDK? Let me know if you can provide a few more details. Thanks! Will ---

Thanks for confirming, @gms! To create a Meeting, you can use our [Create Meeting API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingcreate) and authorize your request with a JWT token, as you suggested. To generate a JWT token programmatically, you can follow our guide here: > **[JSON Web Tokens (JWT) - Authorization - Documentation](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/jwt#generating-jwts)** > > JWT With Zoom > > The Zoom API uses JSON Web Tokens (JWT) to authenticate account-level access. These tokens offer a method to establish secure server-to-s... You may find it helpful to leverage one of the pre-built libraries for JWT token generation available on [https://jwt.io](https://jwt.io) as well. Let me know if this helps! Thanks, Will ---

Hi @gms, To clarify, you will need to use your API Key and Secret to generate a JWT token for use with the Create Meeting API. It sounds like you might be using your SDK credentials instead: > JWT token generated successfully using SDK key and secret > and then using this token creating meeting. Thanks, Will ---
