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](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](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/user) Thanks, Tommy ---

Hey @briceicle, What do you mean by type? [Type of plan](https://zoom.us/pricing)? 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}](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/user) endpoint which returns the `type`. ![Screen Shot 2020-01-16 at 10.57.24 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/2X/6/617343dfcc22e86c071ee387bf4c7ac5afcb37ef.png) Thanks, Tommy ---

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 ---
