V2 Update User not working

API and Webhooks
1

Hi,

 

I’m able to create a valid JWT and pull user data successfully. However when I attempt to update a user I’m getting an error:

 

{“code”:300,“message”:“Unsupported Content Type”}

 

Your docs indicate it’s a “PATCH” http call, but in the example curl call you don’t include a -X PATCH argument…

 

for example:

 

/usr/bin/curl -X PATCH -s -S -d ‘{“first_name”:“Apache”}’ -H ‘Authorization: Bearer VALID_JWT_TOKEN’ https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/ZOOM_USER_ID

results in:

{“code”:300,“message”:“Unsupported Content Type”}

 

and if I call it the way the docs describe (without the -X PATCH argument) I get a huge zoom error page with no json content.

 

Any help here appreciated.

Hi Brian, 

Yes. you do need to -X Patch in your curl command, here is a sample one below, if successful you should receive a 204 code. 

curl -X PATCH “https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/{user-id}?access_token=mLY1_5lHPdlXbRs” -H “accept: application/json” -H “Content-Type: application/json” -d “{ “first_name”: “Jim”}”

Thanks

Thanks Michael. I got it working now. It would help immensely if your API docs were current and included valid, working examples.

Hi Brain, 

Glad that you got it working, we’re working on updating our docs as we speak. 

Thanks
