I have a requirement to update the API Key of a list of User Accounts after every ‘n’ number of days. I tried to do that using ‘Update a User’ API bet that didn’t work. Can someone please let me know if there is a way to accomplish this?

Hey @pradeep.veeraballe,

Are you able to clarify what you mean? I ask because JWT credentials (API Key and API Secret) are set at the account level.

Further, there isn’t a way to programmatically regenerate credentials from a [JWT App](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/jwt) nor do we have an endpoint that will return the credentials once they are changed. We don’t have plans to change this in the future due to security policies that we have in place.

However, you can regenerate credentials manually from the JWT app.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,  
Max
