Hey @kurono

Thanks for posting on the Zoom Devforum! I am still learning, but I will try my best to help answer your question. 🙂

Checkout this related thread that may have the answer you are looking for:

> [@Requesting Access Token via Python](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/-/6637):

> Description/Error I want to know how can i request access token for an OAuth App using Python. Do you have a template? I already have client-id and client-secret. I want to get access token now via Python script which I want to run locally on my machine. I can successfully generate the token by using "Send a Test Request " feature but now I am looking how to do it using python code.

If this thread did not help, please let us know by replying back here and someone from the Developer Relations team will get back to you shortly.

Thanks,
