Hey @AjayChoudhary,

The request body you are setting appears to be a response body which will not process correctly.

Please try a valid [request body](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/meetings/meetingcreate#request-body) like so:

```json
{
  "topic": "Testing Zoom"
  "type": 2,
  "start_time": "2020-06-12T09:00:00",
  "timezone": "Europe/Berlin"
  "duration": 30
}

```

Thanks,  
Tommy
