Hi @nandinirouthu23, thanks for posting and using Zoom! The main question is whether you will want users outside of your account to use your app, or if you want account-level authorization. If this app is meant to be used by users outside your account or requires user-level permissions, use an [OAuth app](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/oauth). If your app is managing users and data on your account, use [JSON Web Tokens](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/jwt). Either of these authentication types can be used from PHP to make requests to the Zoom API:

```php
<?php

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
  CURLOPT_URL => "https://api.zoom.us/v2/users?status=active&page_size=30&page_number=1",
  CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
  CURLOPT_ENCODING => "",
  CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
  CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
  CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
  CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "GET",
  CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
    "authorization: Bearer 39ug3j309t8unvmlmslmlkfw853u8",
    "content-type: application/json"
  ),
));

$response = curl_exec($curl);
$err = curl_error($curl);

curl_close($curl);

if ($err) {
  echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
} else {
  echo $response;
}

```
