I use Basic plan and MeetingSDK.
I need to use the REST API to get the ZAK and so on.
However, according to the plan information it is stated that the basic plan cannot use the REST API.
Zoom is the leader in modern enterprise video communications, with an easy, reliable cloud platform for video and audio conferencing, chat, and webinars across mobile, desktop, and room systems. Zoom Rooms is the original software-based conference...
I referred to a related forum, but I couldn’t decide whether it’s okay to use the REST API with the basic plan.
This page – https://zoom.us/pricing says Zoom Free license does not have the REST API. But, I tried a create meeting request with a free user and it worked.
I received an email today that included one bullet that stated – If you are using a Zoom free plan, you will need more API calls to provide uninterrupted services…
Can anyone provide definitive documentation on what API calls will work with a Free license now and in the future?

Is it possible to use a REST API at Basic (Free) plan?
is it possible create a meeting with REST API with Basic Account from my application?
Can I use the REST API on the Basic Plan?
The API I’m currently thinking about using is the following, and there are no any prerequisites for the endpoint.

https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/methods/#operation/user
https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/methods/#operation/meetings
If REST API is available, what is the rate limit?
Hi @akio
If you are only going to use those 3 endpoints that you have shared, you can indeed do it with a basic plan
If you look closely into the Docs, those endpoints do not have any Prerequisite, which means you can access them with a basic plan.
For example, the Create a User endpoint shows the Prerequisite: * A Pro or higher plan.

That being said, there are some endpoints that you will able to access but not all of them.
Hope this helps,
