Delete recordings

We are currently working on a project in our team where we need to transfer video recordings from Zoom Cloud to our own servers. Our plan is to use the Zoom API to download and then delete these recordings. While testing, we found that the API endpoints which return download links for recordings respond with an error about missing scopes (e.g. [cloud_recording:read:list_recording_files, cloud_recording:read:list_recording_files:admin]). However, when we open our app in the Zoom Marketplace, we cannot find these required Cloud Recording scopes in the Scopes section. Our current app is of type Meeting SDK, and from Zoom documentation and community discussions, it seems that Meeting SDK apps do not support Cloud Recording scopes. Instead, the app type must be Server-to-Server OAuth in order to use these scopes. Could you please confirm if this is the reason why we cannot add the Cloud Recording scopes? And if so, is the correct approach to create a new Server-to-Server OAuth app for accessing and downloading cloud recordings?
