We found out that in zoom apps during 0auth flow for web-based apps it uses v2/zoomapp/deeplink to create a deeplink and subsequently redirects to the link. We need more details about what should we pass in payload for this API request. We read the documentation about the same here [deeplink](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/zoom-apps/architecture/#deep-link-generation)\* However, we need more information about what value should we pass for  
`action: JSON.stringify({ url: '/your/url', role_name: 'Owner', verified: 1, role_id: 0, }),`

I think the `action` field is optional. It’s what allows you to pass some state info so that your app has some context.

My app relies on events from inside the meeting, so I didn’t need to use that at all.
