**Description**  
Hello Zoom Team, I have a question regarding localisation for our app. How would we specify a language for Oauth user authorisation (even if only for the log in to Zoom window)? Assuming that it is possible, I assume that the supported languages are only those from the main Zoom pages.  
Thanks ahead of time!

Hi @m.yankovskyyuk,

Good question—while it’s not possible to set the language as part of the OAuth flow itself, you _can_ set a user’s language using the PATCH Update User endpoint:

> **[Update a User - Users - Zoom API - API Reference](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/users/userupdate)**
>
> Update information on a user's Zoom profile.
> Scopes: user:write:admin user:write
> 
> Rate Limit Label: Light
> 
> Authorization
> 
> Flow: authorizationCode
> 
> Auth...

Let me know if this helps,  
Will
