Hi! I’m trying to initialize the sample sdk android zoom application but don’t know how to generate the SDK\_JWTTOKEN, USER\_ID, ZOOM\_ACCESS\_TOKEN.

From what I read it is possible to generate these parameters from my account but I have not found where to do it.

Thank you,  
Oren

Hi @orengr4, thanks for using the dev forum.

These are all going to come from different places. I’ll provide some information on where you can access these.

- SDK JWT: See our documentation on [composing the JWT](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/android/mastering-zoom-sdk/sdk-initialization#composing-jwt-for-sdk-initialization)
- ZAK (Zoom access token): This can be retrieved through the REST API and is specific to the user you are retrieving it for. See our documentation on the user token endpoint [here](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/usertoken) and feel free to reach out over on #zoom-api if you need any assistance using the API.
- User ID: This is a unique identifier generated for a user when they join the meeting. Depending on what you are using this for, the method of retrieving may vary. Could you provide some context on when/where you are trying to utilize this field so that I may better advise you?

Thanks!
