I configured a Server-to-server oauth app which works fine, but I want to add «group» scopes (ie: «group:write:admin» and «group:read:admin») and they don’t seem to appear in the «Scopes» section of the app. The «group» scopes are available when I create a simple OAuth app (not Server-to-Server). My account admin does not know how to help me and tells me Server-to-Server does not have group scopes. Is this correct? Otherwise, why are the «group» scopes not visible in Server-to-server app and how can I fix this? ---

Hi @a.provencher , > [@a.provencher](#): > > The «group» scopes are available when I create a simple OAuth app (not Server-to-Server). Welcome to the forum, I’ll try my best to help here to uncover the logic behind this behavior and whether this is intended. Scopes are available based on account plan/type and user role/permissions: > **[Internal apps (Server-to-server)](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/internal-apps/)** > > The Zoom Developer Platform is an open platform that allows third-party developers to build applications and integrations upon Zoom’s video-first unified communications platform. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/d/1/d12f1366720f1905352bcf523f17e6bbf1341d77.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/9/4/94d0c52e0a160830622d64cc6cbe6b9754fe7ce9.jpeg) Additionally, groups may have group admins that are empowered to make these changes.

Sorry for the delay, I had to get to our licence admin for info. You were right, the group and contacts were not ticked for the role that was created for app developers. I can now add the group scope to my app. Sorry for the bother but thanks a lot for the detailed answer, it allowed me to show our admin where to look. Have a nice day 🙂 ---

Hi @a.provencher , not a bother at all! Happy you were able to resolve!
