Hi Team,

Good Morning…!,

We are trying to integrate zoom API with oauth v2 to creating users in zoom with access token.

Error:

{  
“error”: “This API does not support client credentials for authorization.”  
}

My Zoom account: [anjibabuch987@gmail.com](mailto:anjibabuch987@gmail.com)

Step: 1 Created app and enabled oauth2 , scopes(admin create user).

Step2: Generated access token with client credentials.

Code:  
uri = URI(‘[https://zoom.us/oauth/token](https://zoom.us/oauth/token)’)  
params = { grant\_type: ‘client\_credentials’, client\_id: “”, client\_secret: “” }  
response = Net::HTTP.post(uri, URI.encode\_www\_form(params))  
data = JSON.parse(response.body)

Step3: With access token trying to create user(url: ) it’s getting above error.

Code:  
uri = URI(‘[https://api.zoom.us/v2/users](https://api.zoom.us/v2/users)’)  
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri)  
request.content\_type = ‘application/json’  
request[‘Authorization’] = “Bearer #{access\_token}”  
request.body = {  
action: ‘create’,  
user\_info: {  
email: user\_params[:email],  
type: user\_params[:type],  
first\_name: user\_params[:first\_name],  
last\_name: user\_params[:last\_name],  
password: user\_params[:password]  
}  
}.to\_json

```
  response = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port, use_ssl: true) do |http|
    http.request(request)
  end
  JSON.parse(response.body)

```

Can you please help us to resolve this issue.

Please let me know if you need any information my side.

Thanks  
Anjibabu Ch

@anjibabuch987

the closest i have are python based sample

here’s how to use get access token using OAuth

```auto
    from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
        import base64
        import requests
        import urllib.parse # Import the urllib module for URL encoding
        
        def handle_redirect_url_data_request(path, oauth_client_id, oauth_client_secret, code):
            print ("handle_redirect_url_data_request")
            url = f"https://zoom.us/oauth/token"
            redirect_uri=f"https://python.asdc.cc/{path}"
            print (redirect_uri)
            
            # Encode the client ID and client secret
            credentials = f"{oauth_client_id}:{oauth_client_secret}"
            credentials_encoded = base64.b64encode(credentials.encode()).decode('utf-8')
        
            headers = {
                'Authorization': f'Basic {credentials_encoded}',
                'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
               
            }
            print (credentials_encoded)
        
            data = {
                'grant_type': 'authorization_code',
                'redirect_uri': redirect_uri,
                'code': code
            }
            # Encode the data dictionary as x-www-form-urlencoded
            data_encoded = urllib.parse.urlencode(data).encode('utf-8')
        
        
            response = requests.post(url, data=data_encoded, headers=headers)
            # Check the HTTP status code before parsing as JSON
            if response.status_code == 200:
               print ("response 200")
               response_json = response.json()
               print(response_json)
               return response_json, 200 # Return JSON response with 200 status code
            else:
                
                # Handle the case where the response has an error status code
                return "Error: " + str(response.status_code), response.status_code
        

```

@anjibabuch987 you are using my redirect URL, it will not work. You have to use your own redirect URL.

And how did you convert this btw?

@anjibabuch987 for hygiene coding purpose, could you check if the quotes are all in " and not “”

I’m not exactly sure why there is complain about line feed / carrier, it might be a quote thing

@anjibabuch987 I’m not entirely sure whats wrong, but here’s a sample code in python for creating meeting. You can just change the json payload and the URL endpoint to create user.

```auto
      from flask import Flask, request

@anjibabuch987

Sorry for the delay in response. If you need urgent help, I would strongly encourage you to look at paid developer support.

Please ensure that the authorization code is only used once. It is only valid once.

The current issue is that you have problem creating users?

Can you try with this payload?

{  
“action”: “create”,  
“user\_info”: {  
“email”: “[tanchunsiong+msdk+test@gmail.com](mailto:tanchunsiong+msdk+test@gmail.com)”,  
“type”: 1,  
“first\_name”: “ChunSiong”,  
“last\_name”: “Tan”,  
“password”: “P@ssw0rd223445”  
}
