Description: I’m trying to create a user-managed zoom app for the purpose of Zoom OAuth. Currently the app is still in draft and development mode.

Expectation: Before I can move this app into production, I’d like to test it out for a few test users.

Error : I do not have the option to add test user licenses( It’s greyed out) and I’m not able to activate/move the app to an active state

Trouble Shooting routes: I have checked the documentation and reviewed various topics on the forum and couldn’t find a solution to this particular issue

Hi,

I would suggest that you look into Zoom’s article on [Sharing private and beta apps](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/distribute/sharing-private-and-beta-apps/)

Hope this helps!
