**API Endpoint(s) and/or Zoom API Event(s)**  
GET /accounts/{accountId}/webinars/{webinarId}

> **[Zoom Meeting Master API](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/rest/reference/zoom-api/ma/#operation/webinar)**
>
> API Reference for /docs/api/rest/reference/zoom-api/ma

**Description**  
According to the docs, the only scope I should need is `webinar:master`, and I do have that scope granted, yet I keep getting this response:  
“Invalid access token, does not contain scopes:[webinar:master, webinar:read:master, webinar:write:master].”

I’m not able to select webinar:read:master or webinar:write:master as a scope in my app.  
I’m signed in as the “Owner” user role so I don’t think it’s a role permission issue.

Hi @wmgjchipp  
Sorry, I did not catch it the first time.  
It looks like you are trying to access Master Account APIs and you might not have a Master account plan.  
To access webinar endpoints, please use the regular Webinar API endpoints found here:

Here is more information about the Master Account API plans

> **[Master Account API](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/rest/master-account-apis/)**

> The Zoom Developer Platform is an open platform that allows third-party developers to build applications and integrations upon Zoom’s video-first unified communications platform.

Okay perfect. I can confirm the regular methods work for me. Thank you so much for your assistance.

GET /webinars/{webinarId}

Here’s where I got tripped up. I was following this server to server app guide:

> **[Server-to-Server OAuth](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/internal-apps/s2s-oauth/)**
>
> The Zoom Developer Platform is an open platform that allows third-party developers to build applications and integrations upon Zoom’s video-first unified communications platform.

On that page, the next section links to a page which has the OAuth scopes:

> **[OAuth scopes](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/internal-apps/oauth-scopes/)**
>
> The Zoom Developer Platform is an open platform that allows third-party developers to build applications and integrations upon Zoom’s video-first unified communications platform.

I searched for webinar, and of course, all the scopes listed first are master scopes for the master account api. Now I know to watch for that.

Thanks again!
