Hey @sunidhiligade21, You can follow these guides to create a JWT App, and then get a JWT Token: > **[JSON Web Tokens (JWT) - Build an App - Documentation](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/build/jwt-app)** > > Create a JWT App > > JSON Web Tokens are strings of text which are passed on every request to verify the authorization of the server.
