Hi Team,  
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to provide you with an update on our ongoing integration with the Zoom API.  
We’ve been working on user creation using the “/v2/users” endpoint, and during the process, we encountered a permission issue. The error message received is as follows:  
}  
“code”: 2016,  
“message”: “No permission, please contact Zoom customer support.”  
}

Upon further investigation, it was identified that the correct action to be used in the request body is “CustCreate” instead of “Create.” We have made this adjustment, but we are still facing the permission error.

Then you must be an ISV partner with Zoom before that action.

Hi @drpadron  
As mentioned in my previous response, you will need to sign up for our ISV Partner program to be able to use custCreate
