and just to give more details:

this is how i call the API:

const uri = `https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/${userId}`;  
var options = {  
uri: uri,  
qs: {  
status: ‘active’  
},  
method: ‘POST’,  
auth: {  
‘bearer’: token  
},  
body: {  
“first\_name”:firstname,  
“last\_name”:lastname  
},  
headers: {  
‘User-Agent’: ‘Zoom-api-Jwt-Request’,  
‘content-type’: ‘application/json’  
},  
json: true //Parse the JSON string in the response  
};
