@chunsiong.zoom Need some information. For the following scope **meeting\_token:read:local\_recording,** should the app be approved if an oauth token is being used.  
Using token with s2s is working, but for oauth it is not working for some odd reason, I have added the scopes to my zoom app marketplace too,

same credentials for oauth and s2s are being used.  
code is :

```auto
'''
            meeting_id = form.meeting_id.data
            passcode = form.passcode.data
            user_id = str(current_user.id)

            is_zoom_oauth = session.get('is_zoom_oauth', False)
            print(is_zoom_oauth)
            token = session.get('zoom_access_token') if is_zoom_oauth else None
            if is_zoom_oauth and token:
                auth_token = 'Bearer ' + token
                print('auth token',token)
            else:
                token= S2S_Auth()
                auth_token = 'Bearer ' + token

            response = requests.get(
                f'https://api.zoom.us/v2/meetings/{meeting_id}/jointoken/local_recording',
                headers={'Authorization': auth_token}
            )
            print('response',response)
            if response.status_code == 200:
                join_token = response.json().get('token') # Make sure 'token' is the correct key
            else:
                print(f"Failed to obtain local recording join token. Status code: {response.status_code}")
                return jsonify({'success': False, 'message': f'Failed to obtain local recording join token. 
'''

```

When passed, the response is

```auto
response <Response [400]>
Failed to obtain local recording join token. Status code: 400
Status code: {response.status_code}'}), 400

```

Even on postman if we hit the api with correct headers, response is

```auto
{
    "code": 4711,
    "message": "Invalid access token, does not contain scopes:[meeting_token:read:admin:local_recording, meeting_token:read:local_recording]."
}

```

But works fine for s2s auth.  
Please clarify.

Thanks for the tag, @management1! I’m happy to help. To clarify my understanding, you’ve enabled the meeting\_token:read:local\_recording scope and you can successfully request the local recording token when using your server-to-server app., but not with OAuth? Could you specify the type of app you’re using? Are you using the New Unified Build Flow Marketplace App type?

> **[Zoom App Creation Build Flow](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/build-flow/)**

Also, are you trying to get the token for a user within your account or outside of your account?
