Hey @venkat.sai,

The grant type of client\_credentials will only work with [Zoom Chatbots](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/chatbots/installation-and-authentication).

You need to use the [OAuth grant type of authorization\_code](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/oauth#getting-access-token).

Can you share a screenshot and steps to reproduce this error: “Note: if we use the grant type as Authorization code we are getting page not found.”.

Thanks,  
Tommy

Hi Tommy,

Thanks for the response and we figured out the issue and changed to [OAuth grant type of authorization\_code] that resolved our issue.

Thanks,  
Venkat
