Is there a scope to create calls on behalf of ONE user

API and Webhooks
1

My team will build a bridge to create meetings and invite existing users. After several internal back and forths, and a review of both the docs and a handy YouTube video (sorry, the forum forbids me to include links in the post :dotted_line_face:) it is still unclear if it is possible to create meetings on behalf of a single user.

In other words, a script will be accessing Zoom’s API to create a meeting for the “technical” user and invite existing ones.
Specifically, we do not want that user to have extended rights regarding other users’ meetings.
Yet in a different way: it must not be a Zoom administrator that can access all company meetings.

The documentation is not very clear there because it does not mention (at least to our eyes) that the scope provided vai the console is limited to the meetings of the user creating the meetings.

Could someone please comment on that?

Hi @Wvv
Thanks for reaching out to us and welcome to our Zoom Developer Community, I am happy to help here!

You could create a specific Role under the main account and give that account (who is not and admin) privileges to perform operations to a certain group, and you can add that “technical” user to that group (even if it is the only person in it) and that way the “non admin” user will be able to only create meetings for that specific user, using an admin managed oauth app.

Hope that helps and if not, I am happy to elaborate further
