Hello @sailpoint,

Welcome to the Zoom Community! We're happy to have you here.

Zoom no longer requires admins to select a user type when adding users, as this field is now deprecated. Instead, admins only need to assign purchased licenses or set appropriate permission levels (like Zoom Meetings Basic). Users without a license can be unassigned to prevent meeting scheduling or hosting. Avoid using the user type field in new integrations or workflows since it’s no longer supported for user management.

You can check out this link for reference.

Hi @MGSR ,
Previously "type" parameter was used to identify the user type basic, licnece and on-prem with values 1, 2, 4.
Which parameter is now used for permission levels to assing (basic, licnece, on-prem and collabaration)?
Could you please share parameter name for SCIM based API and REST API?

Thanks,
Prashant
