Using Zoom APIs Version 1 with Postman
You can view the guide on how to use postman with Zoom API Version 2 here
Postman is the complete toolchain for API development and testing. Its many features like importing collections and setting up environments make it easy to get started with testing a third party API. In this post, we will walk through the fastest way to setup and play around with Zoom’s APIs in Postman.
First make sure you have the latest version of Postman, as of this post it is v5.1.1

Import the Zoom API collection from GitHub using the OpenAPI specification. In the top toolbar click “Import” then select “Import From Link.” Enter in the path to the spec from GitHub https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zoom/api-v1/master/openapi.v2.json and click "Import."

You should now have all of the APIs listed in your Postman tool under a collection called “Zoom API.”

From here you can begin testing all of the Zoom APIs, however, let’s make it a little easier. If you inspect one of the endpoints, in this example “/v1/user/list”, you’ll notice in the Body parameters tab that all of the parameters are displayed with some of the default values pre-populated. You’ll also notice that some of the parameters have been populated with a variable, ex. “{{api_key}}.”

Now you could go through and for every endpoint replace these with your API Key and Secret, or we can take advantage of Environments in Postman. Let’s add an Environment!
Click the gear icon in the top right and then click “Manage Environments.”

Next, click “Add” to create a new environment. You can name the environment whatever you like, in this example we kept it simple and named it “Zoom.” We then added a couple of key/value pairs, api_key and api_secret. You could create values for all the possible values in the API. However, we are only added these for now. Click “Add” to save your environment setup, then close the dialog to return to the Postman tool.

Now in the top right, you will see a drop-down that is currently set to “No Environment.” Select your newly created environment from the dropdown. You will see those variables available in your setup turn from red to orange. You can hover over a variable to see it’s value.

This API endpoint doesn’t have any other required parameters so you should now be able to click send and test it out.
Instead of changing out the api_key and api_secret everywhere you are now able to use the power of Postman and environments and have the value set for all endpoints and can easily start testing out the Zoom APIs.
