Is it possible to create on demand meetings for other users?

Hey @mursang,

Great question, and happy to clarify. To that end, this is definitely possible—let me point you in the right direction.

If you wish to create a Zoom meeting on behalf of another user who is not under your account, you’ll need to utilize an OAuth app, rather than JWT. (JWT apps work for actions within your own account, not outside of it).

You can find our guide for getting started with OAuth here:

You may also find this other post on our dev forum helpful, as it covers a similar topic:

Possible to create meeting on behalf of another Zoom account?

I know that I can create meetings for users under my account with the REST API, but is it possible to create a meeting on behalf of users from another account? The use case is that I have web app that clinicians use and I want them to be able to create instant meetings with their clients through my app with their existing zoom account. I don’t want them to have to enter in credentials. If possible, could I just use their credentials they have already given to me, using the REST API?

I hope this helps!
Will
