Using API/JWT to change user, get a 204 success but change is not done

API and Webhooks
1

Description

I have a python script that should just allow managing a user.

from zoomus import ZoomClient
import config
client = ZoomClient(config.API_KEY, config.API_SECRET)
user_r = client.user.get( id = args.email )
user = json.loads(user_r.content)

I get proper answer.

Then I modify the user and send the modification

user['dept'] = "Test"
res = client.user.update(id = user['id'], data = user)

Error

I get a 204 answer with a null body.

but data of the user is not changed.

Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?

Using JWT

Which Endpoint/s?

PATCH /v2/users/

Other

using python zoomus package. Enabled the urlib3 debugging and every parameters looks ok.

Hey @marc.furrer,

Can you send us the link to the python zoomus package you are using?

Also do you have SSO turned on? You may not be allowed to edit the department.

Thanks,
Tommy

I have simplified my script, here is the debug form url lib:

DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:Starting new HTTPS connection (1): api.zoom.us:443
send: b'PATCH /v2/users/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: api.zoom.us\r\nUser-Agent: python-requests/2.23.0\r\nA

send: b'{"id": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", "data": {"dept": "MFU-Test", "type": 1}}'
reply: 'HTTP/1.1 204 \r\n'
DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:https://api.zoom.us:443 "PATCH /v2/users/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx HTTP/1.1" 204 0

and log from the API is :

}

Hey @marc.furrer,

Thanks for sharing logs, I now see the issue. The request body is incorrect.

{"id":"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ","data":{"dept":"MFU-Test","type":1}}

It should be this:

{"dept":"MFU-Test","type":1}

Let me know if that fixes it.
