Hello,  
We recently launched our OAuth application so that our users can configure their activities without entering JWT keys.

But when they try to access the call through our virtual stage, which uses the Web SDK, it is not possible since an API Key and an API Secret are required to join, which is not available with OAuth.

Is there any possibility to get the user’s JWT application credentials with the keys provided with OAuth? or maybe generate the Web SDK signature using the oauth credentials directly?

What options do we have since our main purpose when developing the App (OAuth) was to prevent users from having to enter JWT keys since many due to their role within Zoom do not have access.

Thanks for your help!!.

Hey @esteban,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. Great question! Currently, the [Web SDK](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/web#zoom-web-sdk) only supports authenticating via JWT credentials. For this reason, in order to start a meeting with the Web SDK, the host of the meeting must be on your account. Participants from other Zoom accounts, and guests, can join the meeting but you can’t host a meeting that is from another account.

I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,  
Max
