Hi. I am working on a CRM in which one of the features is task scheduling in which one of the options is to create a zoom meeting. Does the user have to authorize every time or is there an option to authorize only once without the need to authorize in the future? What are the options?

Hi @kondus2002

Thanks so much for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum, I am happy to help here!  
If you are trying to integrate Zoom API within your CRM and have your application make API calls on behave of third party users, you will need to create an OAuth application

> **[Zoom Developer Docs](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/build/oauth-app/)**
>
> The Zoom Developer Platform is an open platform that allows third-party developers to build applications and integrations upon Zoom’s video-first unified communications platform.

Once a user authorizes the app with their credentials, they do not need to re authorize every time they want to user your application.

Hope this helps and let me know if you need anything else  
Best,  
Elisa
