Description
is there an API to retrieve an Account’s basic information? Specifically the account type?

Hey @briceicle,

Are you trying to get a Master Accounts account type, or a sub account / user?

For a sub account: https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/billing/accountplans
For a user: https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/user

Thanks,
Tommy

@tommy I’m trying to get a Master Account’s account type.

Hey @briceicle,

What do you mean by type? Type of plan?

Can you share your use case please?

Thanks,
Tommy

@tommy yes, the type of plan.

Background:
We have a Zoom app that use custCreate to create users. However, custCreate is only available for Pro+ accounts

The Use Case:
We would like to query the type of plan of the account in order to show/hide the functionality describe above for our users.

Hey @briceicle,

Thanks for sharing the use case!

You can use the GET /users/{userId} endpoint which returns the type.

Hey @tommy,

Isn’t the User’s plan type different than the Account’s plan type? I’d like to query the Account’s plan, not the User’s

Hey @briceicle,

You can only get the plan for Users / Sub Accounts with the API.

But checking the plan for the user should work in your use case since users can have different account types under a Master Account.

Thanks,
Tommy

Hey @tommy,

My Zoom App is an account level app, and the user who authorizes the app is an admin. Would checking the plan of this admin user enough to determine whether I can call custCreate on the account?

Hey @briceicle,

Yes, try checking for the admin user who installed the app.

Thanks,
Tommy
