I’m an experienced developer but new to the zoom apis. I need to set up a system to allow SMS messages to one phone number to be posted into slack. I have the slack side of things handled as we already have a custom bot for a number of tasks that I can connect this to. I don’t want the phone number to be linked to any one individual, since accounts may change over time. In the zoom admin portal I was able to [set up an endpoint here](https://zoom.us/pbx/page/telephone/service-endpoint), and link a phone number to it, but I can’t seem to find any references to that in the api documentation elsewhere, that all seems to be based on individual user-level access. Would anyone be kind enough to point me in the right direction? Thanks.

Hi @MatthewC  
Thanks for reaching out to us and welcome to the Zoom Developer Forum!  
I am happy to help here!  
We do have a Post SMS message endpoint available [Phone APIs](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/phone/#tag/sms/post/phone/sms/messages)

In order to access Zoom APIS, you have 2 options:

- User level Oauth app ([Integrations (OAuth apps)](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/integrations/))
- Server to Server Oauth app ([Internal apps (Server-to-server)](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/internal-apps/))
