**Description/Error**  
Is there a way to determine what type of license has been assigned to a user after their license has been created via CustCreate. Looking to identify if they are an API minutes user or a Named Host user. Can provide specific email addresses if that is helpful.

Hey @marcus.barela,

There is a type returned from the GET user API:

> **[Get a Specific User - Users - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/user)**
>
> A Zoom account can have one or more users. Use this API to view information of a specific user on a Zoom account.
> Scopes: user:read:admin user:read

You could also look in OP?

Thanks,  
Tommy
