**Description**  
After going through the documentation for server to server oauth, it requires an account\_id to make a request. The app credentials for oauth does not provide us with an account\_id, it only provides the client ID and client secret. How can I get the account\_id.

POST [https://zoom.us/oauth/token?grant\_type=account\_credentials&account\_id={accountId}](https://zoom.us/oauth/token?grant_type=account_credentials&account_id=%7BaccountId%7D)  
HTTP/1.1  
Host: [zoom.us](http://zoom.us)  
Authorization: Basic Base64Encoder(clientId:clientSecret)

@josh.gyau creating a server to server oauth app should give you the account id. maybe you created a regular OAuth app? Can you DM me the screenshot?
