I created a webhook app and receiving meeting alerts as per https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/events/#/paths/meeting.alert/post .

There is a field in event received "account_id". Its description in zoom support page says

"The account ID of the user who created the meeting."

I wanted to verify this account id coming, so as i created this meeting, i checked in my profile page, account number present there is different from what i am receiving in events.
Could you help me on where can i see account id received in events in my account ?

Hello @Neema91,
My name is Brandon. Thanks for joining the Zoom Community! Your account ID is an alphanumeric value as depicted in the example screenshot that I took below. It is a unique value to your account and to get it you must use a "get" API.

use the API reference page listed here to find the API results. https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/introduction/

Thanks,

Brandon

Hi Brandon,

Thanks for quick response.

so all users under 1 account will have same account id ?

An organisation having 500 users will have same account id for all ?

I am getting confused because as per https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/zoom-api/events/#/paths/meeting.alert/post , it says -

account_id = The account ID of the user who created the meeting.
I understood it as "every user will have its own account id even when they belong to same account" .
