[01-Sep-2026 19:37:45 America/Regina] Zoom API add_clip_collaborators Error | clip=gVW3QDLBSAO5lo85woyo5w | Status: 400 | Body: {"code":7001,"message":"Unable to share the clip, you have reached the daily limit of 5 external shares. Please try again after 2026/9/02 01:52 PM."}

Any input would be appreciated.

    Hi ​@Joel Dapiawen,

    Thank you for joining the community! That 400 / code 7001 response is expected behavior: you’ve hit Zoom Clips’ daily limit for external shares. Zoom has security-related protections that cap how many times a clip can be shared externally per day (your message shows the limit as 5). Once you hit it, additional external shares are blocked until the reset time shown in the error (“Please try again after 2026/9/02 01:52 PM.”). 

     

    What to do:

    • Wait until the reset time in the error message, then retry the add_clip_collaborators call.
    • If you need to share with more people before then, use internal sharing (users in the same account/org) rather than “external shares,” since the limit is specifically for external sharing. 

     

    Please check out this link for more information. I hope this helps!

    Hi Alayun,

    I ran multiple tests against that API endpoint and can confirm that there appears to be a limit of 5 users per day when adding users to the permissions for Zoom Clips.

    I also tested it using valid email addresses within our Zoom tenant and received the same error:

    Zoom API add_clip_collaborators Error | clip=gVW3QDLBSAO5lo85woyo5w | Status: 400 | Body: {"code":7001,"message":"Unable to share the clip, you have reached the daily limit of 5 external shares."}

    This is happening even though I am sharing the clip only with users who should not be considered external. It looks like the API may still be counting these users as external shares.
